....meanwhile back at the lab....my kitchen

So with a little advice from Sandee(studio mate and homie), I cast my candy project molds with Smooth-On's Crystal Clear Liquid Plastic. This experiment was to see if I could make fake lollies look like the real ones for long term display. So far, looking good after two trials.

progress in Durham

I've got the basic circuit and programming working for my Candy Computing ver. .01 project.



And a new candy mold! It's made with Smooth-On products.



I'm already working on the Scrapyard Guitars , workshop gathering stuff to make one and two string guitars with. I hope lots of people show up.

more candy!

My friend Robert Pasternak came by to work on some candy making explorations with me last weekend.
