Matt's Mad Science and Inventions

In the last half year I have invented, built and published quite a few inventions, and mad science art projects. Many are innovations that have never before been produced or documented. Here is a short list of some of the most interesting projects.

I!" #!$
%tility & 'eyboardless yping, (bit chorded input, touching fingers to thumbs !ublished May )*+, Youtube Videos : http&--youtu.be-.w/01)2345% , http&--youtu.be-67y'/8w(/(g ,

ip type is an new way of typing by touching the fingers to the thumbs. It could be made %=4, or bluetooth. I thin< the coolest application would be in conjunction with ;oogle ;lasses, one could wal< down the street while typing in air. It also allows full rela0ation of the wrists offering potential therapeutic benefits.

5.$ sensor system

%tility & >apturing water waves as electrical signals !ublished May )*+, Youtube Videos :http&--youtu.be-yw""'p?#.55 , http&--youtu.be-bh@:o)dl'*s , Web Articles : http&--www.dscript.org-aqua"wave"effect"awe"lights
http&--www.dscript.org-electric"music"lights"show"awe"sensor"vj"lights

he 5.$ sensors wor< by sensing water waves with electrodes hanging just above the water level. his allows water waves to be captured electrically, meaning multiple wave inputs can be used and even allow the water to be used as a physical computation device.

.ave beat pattern signal generation

%tility & ;enerate beats and patterns via water wave propagation and resonance !ublished =eptember )*+, Youtube Videos :http&--youtu.be-'7y,<!3A#a3 Web Articles : http&--www.dscript.org-wave"pond"water"beat"bo0 .ave sensors trigger signals fed into computers. he wave environment is physically designed to produce the desired beats and patterns. his Human physical interface is used by drawing in the water to produce beats-patterns sent to a computer or electronic device.

Magnetite =altwater 4loc<ing 7elay

%tility & 4loc<ing control of electrical signals with magnetite crystals in salt water !ublished May )*+, Youtube Videos :http&--youtu.be-,mM$>49y9Mg Web Articles : http&--dscript.org-diy"magnetic"water"analogue"switching Magnetic crystals suspended in agitated salt water can be pulled via magnets to bloc< anodes and cathodes, resulting in the ability to bloc< electrical signals through water via magnetic fields. .hen the power to the magnet is removed the magnetic particles disperses and the current flows freely again.

.ater Cscillator
%tility & !roduce an oscillating electrical signal via pulsing water diffusion gap !ublished Buly )*+, Youtube Videos :http&--youtu.be-'DbEm$D1$<s Web Articles : http&--dscript.org-diy"oscillator"ma<ing"water"sing 4y rapidly opening and closing a gap beneath water, an electrical signal passing through will produce oscillations. /requency can easily be produced within the human audible spectrum. >ould be used for computing, electronics, or even more appropriately perhaps, for music and audio generation.

=altwater Magnetite >rystal !roduction

%tility & !roduce Magnetite easily with iron, saltwater and plastic container !ublished Buly )*+, Youtube Videos :http&--youtu.be-wlc!+;hDvjM Web Articles : http&--dscript.org-homegrown"ironii"o0ide 4y allowing iron to o0idi1e in heavily salted water, the lower levels of dissolved gas prevent it from fully o0idi1ing to ironFiiiGo0ide, yielding magnetite crystals.
