Bringin heritage closer to the people.

An installation interpreting images from Collectie van de Gentenaar.

The installation places images on a unique timeline, where each image is semantically connected one way or the other.

This timeline is then printed on toilet paper.

That’s about as close as it gets to the people.

walkthrough

Underneath installation I’ve written an overview of the setup, from the journey the toilet roll takes.

In Software there’s a short writeup on all things software.

Build it yourself

underneath physical construct you can find :

  • the Fusion360 model (parameterized for plate thickness)
  • lasercut files (plate thickness 3.8mm, create new lasercut files via the fusion360 model)
  • the 3D print models

BOM:

  • Raspberry Pi 4B
    • with power supply
    • with SC card
    • Raspberry pi Camera V3
  • Axidraw mini kit 2
  • Adafruit DC stepper hat
  • 2x Nema17 stepper
  • bolts and nuts
  • light bulb E14
  • light bulb fixation
  • LCD Keypat hat
  • large fan (to be defined)
  • markers
    • I used children’s markers, as they have a soft tip, useful for toilet paper and they don’t dry out. Saves some headaches and running around.
