Meet the videocrown.

It’s constructed of perforated aluminum sheets, 6 strips of dichroic acrylic, 4 short brass tubes, and 38 bolts. A wireless video camera is fixed to the inner front with its lens peeping through one of the perforations.

As I wander around Design Festa, the video will be projected back to my booth.

I’ve just about finished my costume—a short black and maroon leatherette dress. I’ll wear it with my Doc Martens boots and lots of eyeliner. I never did get over my goth phase, though it’s pretty well hidden now. But costuming occasions bring it out again and I’m looking forward to playing dress up this weekend.
