That felt like blade runner for 20 minutes! The completed work reminded me of a cityscape with every electrical component a feature in a building of a noir sci-fi movie.
This piece is a depiction of the rule "True art should raise questions, not giving answers". Literally anyone will go "Wow, how that's even..." after seing this
I've been struggling for a long time to unify my love of mechanics with my love of art, and this video has done a great deal to inspire me in that endeavor.
First time watching your videos and I was immediately hooked. The cinematography, the storytelling, your voice-everything is put together so well. This 20-minute video felt like 5 minutes, and I just want more. Great channel, great video-keep it up!
Love how you implemented the electronics in 3D. I'm inspired to use a similar architecture on my home built valve amps. Must have taken a hell of a lot of thought, layout design and work though compared to a PCB. Great work, thanks for uploading.
Seeing such a beautiful thing being an actual functional circuit brought tears to my eyes, I didn't know this is what I needed to spark a new wave of ideas and inspiration for my own work, but I'm infinitely thankful and can't wait to see what's going to come out of your incredible mind next.
Your video came on randomly, as I was about to turn off the TV. I have never heard of sound sculptures until this video and now I'm obsessed with them. What an absolutely beautiful design and the production displaying the process was phenomenal. Well done!
Recently started down my personal journey towards creating sound art after realizing I was drawn more towards creating art than music. Your content is amazing for showcasing the different skillsets that all come together to form visually and sonically beautiful art
It looks like an artifact from another planet. I like your combination of art and electronics. The music gives more strength and dramatism to the images.
This is a thing of beauty, from the conception to the design to the building and documenting in this wonderful video! And it sounds amazing and otherworldly! I can’t see how you could ever top that. Thank you sir for sharing your talents with us.
This is the most impressive and stunning thing I've ever seen-truly the pinnacle of art and engineering. It's like a dream transcending the boundaries of reality in its fabrication.
This is the most beatiful circuitry I have seen in a looooong time! Made me think of Hiwatt amps from the 70’s and Matchless amps from the 90’s. Stunned by the sheer awesomeness of your work.
All things in existence has consciousness. Consciousness is LITERALLY the thing that everything is formed out of. Look at it this way, if plants can literally see us and humans are literally related to pine trees, electrons are conscious even though they may not be “human” conscious. It’s kind of like thinking animals have no consciousness/soul because they’re “animals”, or black people (which was very much a thing at one point(.
@@shineayandrews1869dude, for about one third of each day, I am not conscious. It's called sleep, the unconscious state of rest. I don't think you really know what consciousness is.
I've never ran into anything quite as transcendent as this. The sounds it makes gave me a dizzying wash of false-nostalgia first time I heard this and I've never heard anything like this before. I wish my ADHD would allow me this type of creativity.
I Really digg the symbiosis of the engineering and the materials themselves, allowing the electronics to manifest in a raw beauty; a kind of deconstructed 'form follows function'. One could imagine these works not as being crafted by a human hand, but as the result of some form of electro-ecosystem; tecno-organisms evolved out of the e-ther. Audiophilic Outsider Art Brute - par excellence. Ever thought of incorporating Ferrofluid? Possibly contained in a sort of resonance reaction chamber..
Thanks! I've seen enough of the back and forth between Love Hultén and the self-proclaimed creator of Ferrofluid that I'm willing to let that one pass...
@@EirikBrandalf upon reflection I think that's a wise choice. I can see FF becoming what epoxy resin is to the woodworker community. Personally I would place Stevie-boys 'accomplishments' in the discoveries department rather than his invention; choosing symantecs over pretentions. But NASA probably doesn't cut checks for discoveries.
@@Stuharris Could be true. I wasn't refering to the actual discoverer of the technology though. There is some other guy who claims to have invented it, and he is going absolutely ballistic every time someone else is using it.
@@EirikBrandalf Oh, I was unaware of that bit of lore. That's hilarious though. I ment it as more of a cantankerous jest towards a superior intellect. But I think it could be effectively deployed in the opposite direction ;)
the pure meaning of luxury and elegance. awesome work dude. you are a huge inspiration. i have been working on some projects like this and haven't finished them yet. i motivated now. ill post on my channel when i finish one. Thanx again!
Very nice execution, great job! I know some are criticizing the center LED choice, I do think the curved forms of the fiber cylinders is contrasting the rest of the piece's grid like style (which isn't a bad thing, just a contrast). If you ever revise this or create a similar one I would check out some volumetric LED cubes, to sync the cube LEDs with the waveform of the audio would be really cool.
The piece is great on its own, but I quite adore how your narration of the process fits into it. Maybe it's your voice or the whole package of the presentation, I dunno, but I get 'poetry' out of these technical descriptions!
Thanks! I saw this meme the other day of what someone's perception of their English was in their head versus how it actually sounded, and the first image was of a roaring bear while the second was a pixelated dweeb. That's basically me when doing these videos.
@@EirikBrandalffor what it’s worth I think most people dislike or find their recorded voice strange because the bones in our head make us sound different to use than to others
aaah so cool! When I saw the end result I immediately knew it was you. Saw some of your scultpures at Uncloud in Utrecht last year. Super unique thing you're doing, love getting an insight into your work process.
a certain kind of magic to this I couldn't quite figure out, i guess such as building electronics from scratch will to me always remain a mysterious alchemist act, well done anyway, really like what you did
Hi eirik , your work , noy only the finished object but the overall presentation of the building process is something truly inspiring , i also work and electronics and currently working in my first big sound sculpture and your work has been present in almost every creative meeting as a high point in sound design the attention to all details , and the poetics of the materials expresing themself , hopefully one day well reach such heights , greetings from southamerica!
You, my friend, are a peerless genius. This is simply stunning. I was sat here completely mesmerised by your skills. Your craftsmanship and cinematic skills are astounding. I love it.
The mix of the ambient droning music in the background, your very soothing voice , and your more subtle cinematic style make for such a calming video. Watching the meticulous and precise work be made is very pleasing , definitely subscribing
Holy nylocks batman! Great form-from-function work here. I was expecting that shape in the middle to actually move and not be static light pipes, but it still looks great. The only ways I can think of getting it to move in three dimensions would be a spinning/oscillating volumetric display (noisy), or a stack of OLED panels (Sean Hodgins did one but you’d either need big panels or some strange optics). Maybe just two or three degrees of freedom for a moving light pipes would be interesting enough. Earned a sub.
i have no idea what you said half of the time. But i know this it was captivate and the finished piece is absolutely gorgeous. Never thought i would say this but it's almost like this machine has a soul.. This is (ART)
I don't think I've had this feeling of intrigue in a very long time. I think it maybe was the music with the piece of art in the end as the final product, but this was a very pleasant feeling, thank you
Very, very cool. Reminds me of Peter Vogel's work a bit, but taken up several levels. Extremely mind-blowing. I love it and hope to produce something in this style one day, but I am still a long way off, teaching myself electronics. The skills you have are amazing. Bravo.
You really have a unique and beautiful way to design those AV sculptures, and it sounds amazing! Thank you for sharing the making process, really inspiring. Would love to come visit your sculptures :)
Beautiful sounds. Thanks very much for sharing. First video watched = subscribed. Really enjoyed your process, your video editing and the audio-visual-functional interplay of the work.
i use to stare at circuit boards when i was a kid -hell even now still actually- and just follow the paths on the board in wonder. I eventually learned small electronics and really didnt know what to do with any of it after i had gained a good deal of knowledge on the subject. Also as someone who was able to watch whatever i wanted as a child, i ended up pretty desensitized to ... everything. I feel sometimes. but this......... I watched most of this with my mouth open at 39 yrs old. i cannot explain the beauty of this hole video. the editing, choice of music, the design of the sculpture. my god. i've just been blown the f__k away. like, subscribe, join, member, patreon, donate, reach-around, etc.
I'm glad I skipped to the end because I thought you were going to make a tone generator that you could visualize the interesting patterns and wave forms on a very fancy custom built scope, And it is pretty impressive the time energy and detail you spent on this thing but honestly it's like others have said "It's a RGB LED Tone generator" I would have at least used gas discharge tubes plasma globe or nixie tubes for a more authentic and fancy look The LEDs just seemed cheap and the whole thing was a lot of time and energy not well spent
Super cool At least from someone not super into electronics but somewhat familiar, this is wild, i love it. My philosophy for my work includes "never let them know how you did it" (in the work itself) but i think this is a huge lesson towards putting most of it on display and how that can offer just as much as trying to keep the mystery alive.
That is crazy and amazing. Now my repair background makes me shudder thinking about trying to fix something like that. Just one bump, one random pencil drop, and smoke. Forget about tracing a ground issue.😮😅🎉
Very, very cool sculpture, always wanted to build something like this but I'm terrible at electronics even if I'm very much interested in it lmao. Also, being able to use fullscreen on my ultrawide 1440p monitor and have no black bars is very nice. Incredibly cinematic shot composition too, just a very well rounded vid :D
Glad to hear the choice of resolution and aspect ratio paid off for someone at least! Would love to be able to render in 4K, but my GPU simply can't handle it at the moment.
I was sitting here just thinking "that's some really cool looking electronics, I'm wondering how it'll fit into the sculpture", little did I know haha. Inspiring work!

Not only does he know coding and electrical engineering, he can create art pieces and shoot it with outstanding cinematography.
Hats off to you mate.
This person literally is nothing but talented.
never have i ever seen a diy video so cinematic and so tasteful.
This is honestly the most impressive thing I have seen in a long time! So mesmerizing!
Happy to hear it!
This is how electronics will look in my head from now on . First time seeing something like that. wow. I am glad I randomly decided to open UA-cam.
the impression of electronics that look like this will forever impact me I guarantee it
I recently dreamed about building generative hardware audiovisual sculptures and here you are.
That means you must be sleeping alright, which is already better than what I am doing at the moment!
And with this, we have reached the pinnacle of "dead bug" circuitry.
Amazing work.

Electrons do not have consciousness.
@@kayakMike1000this thought feels incomplete. If you are completely unconscious during rest, how does your conscious mind remember aspects of sleep?
Your comment reminded me of Tron
This is absolutely beautiful. I am getting Hans Zimmer mixed with Posy vibes.
