Brush In Hand
Paint the wall with pixels.
The Pixel Roller (QuickTime, 6MB)
I/O Brush (QuickTime, 9MB)For decades advertising campaigns and company slogans have posed the question: What happens when you combine technology with imagination? Rarely are the results as stunningly imaginative as rAndom International’s Pixel Roller, a paint roller that prints paint or light onto surfaces from a digital input; Watch Paper, a thermographic wallpaper; or MIT’s I/O Brush, which, when brushed across a real-world object, samples the color, texture, and motion of the object, allowing the brush to paint onscreen with the organic pattern.

About: Designorati:Creative Culture
Established September 2005
Tools and techniques are the hallmarks of the creative professions. But are they hallmarks of the creative individual?
Creatives strive to express, expose, and expand their souls through their work, but their work does not define them. A soul as open and intuitive as the creative’s is beautiful and rare. That beauty unlocks the universe to the creative mind, and that rarity unites creatives into communities–into a culture all their own.
