studio test: sshhkk

sshhkk v0.1 (studio test) from christian.ryan on Vimeo.
this one was a bit of fun…  first new work in the new studio + I got to play with a bit of animatronics I rescued from some drugstore throwaway holiday tchochke. 

unfortunately I melted through the logic board two days after shooting this test; it limited the motion to that strange jerky on/off sequence.  now it’s just a dumb circuit (by “dumb” i mean just a simple voltage -> switch -> motor, no controlling board.)

at any rate, can’t wait to install it in a few days @ the Christina Ray gallery in NYC; lots of fun rattling plz to enjoy.
