Embedded Files
I've been building & inventing electronic systems since I was a kid, for lighting control, audio, lasers and various media and devices.
At 20 I incorporated my own laser display production company where I designed and built the laser projectors & controls and sold / produced / directed / executed the shows and was the Laser Safety Officer.
Lately I've been designing and building some new projectors, more of a hobby I think? Below are some things I've built, before glass cockpits and software-defined options existed.

Some Laser Productions I've Produced + Executed
DLECTRICITY DETROIT
DLECTRICITY DETROIT
My lighting design called for 7 20-watt Lightwave laser projectors on the roof in the round for the Starship art project designed by Yvette Mattern
Here is the street light extinction map I created for the local power company, marking beam pathways where reduced street lighting would help the overall DLECTRICITY event, during Starship by Yvette Mattern

I was thrilled to design and tech manage lasers for two Pens home openers (~20 projectors each).
