As strange as it sounds, I could mostly take or leave the modern world of digital media. The whole content-creation circus feels like performative narcissism dressed up as sharing… and I say that knowing I’m just as guilty as the next guy.



Still, it’s not all bad. Every now and then, the voyeurism of it all turns into something worthwhile – something that teaches instead of just screams. Case in point: Huy Vector.



I don’t know Huy. Not one bit. I also don’t have much experience soldering microchips, wiring OLED screens, or bending 1mm copper wire into functioning art. But it doesn’t matter. The man works with precision, intellect, and style… and that is absolutely something that keeps my attention.



Watching him do his thing is like watching science (is that the right word?) and art shake hands. Go check him out… you’ll get it immediately.

I love how he uses the 1mm wire for both conductivity and structure. It’s kind of a theme in his work and it’s just really cool.
Yep - im going to order some parts and build a time, news and stock streamer trinket for family members. I think the EPS32 can boot as a WIFi access point allowing someone to set their WIFI, after that i may have web page for a config and a web service it polls for the display data... Thanks for the inspiration! It's been a decade but we did a short run of Arduino based environmental sensors and this is a modernized and appealing device.

Did anyone notice that during testing when he cycled off and then back on the time was not correct. It's still a pretty cool build.

That’s pretty badass. I’ve gotten off YouTube the past few years, but that is way cool and rather satisfying to watch.

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll return the favor and say Uri Tuchman. If you haven't watched him, you are missing a great channel. He is eccentric and very imaginative with what he builds. Here is a link to his Samurai sword inspired Makita vacuum. You won't be disappointed.
