“It might not be about perfection. Rather, it may be that that which is imperfect is that which has the most character.”

"The public knows that human beings are fallible. Only people blinded by ideology fall into the trap of believing in their own infallibility."

I stopped off at the Chrysler Museum of Art to see their new glass studio renovation. I worked there from 2015-2017 and when leaving, there was lots of exciting talk of their renovation.

My buddy Matt Jacob was curating a little neon show to coincide with their NEON festival that supports the Arts (or real estate) district. I was happy to contribute a few new pieces, and install them on a fresh new wall.

There is the Big Wiped French Orange Coil sitting atop the outlet, the Strawberry SpringSphere inside Warm White SpringSphere shining brightly atop a pedestal and my Fallible Luv Heart.

Oh and people can control the Fallible heart from their phones by logging into the pieces wifi network. It bumps them off their own data connections so I have their attention :)

These will be on display in Norfolk, VA for the next few months at least :). See them at the #Chrysler Museum #Glass Studio if your in town.

I got my WebLink transformer backpack PCBs a few days ago. I soldered em up and by golly they work!

Well, full disclosure, I did mess up (as I knew my fallible self would) I stuck the 5V to the 3volt pin and not the VUSB pin and I didn't put a diode in. Ripping an SMD diode off of a piece of e-waste and slapping it between 3v and VUSB pins solved the issue :)

I will make a peertube video soon on this one- till then I will be messing with esp32 blinky sketches. I got it working with my home assistant... But I dream of making a web packet monitor to neon brightness dimmer - more traffic on the network would make a brighter tube.
Totally willing to trade a piece of neon with web blink transformer to anyone who can help me figure this out.

More illicit device PCBs on the way. Next in line is a mouse riding a Clydesdale that switches AC voltages using TRIACs for a web blinking SSR

Curiosity is a superpower, and without it, even the world's best problem-solving won't get you far. The most dangerous problems are the ones we can't (or won't) see.
