Artist's Comments

This is my first attempt at some new custom computer peripherals. My first try is this hand made 1GB USB Flash drive. As it was a first go (& it was a lot smaller than I'm used to working!) if took me approximately 6hours to complete & works like any other ';plug & play' device, illuminating when its in use. Although its not in the pictured, there is a symmetrical wooden sheath that protects the USB adapter. This will hopefully be the first in many (hopefully more impressive & detailed pieces) So if you like it, keep your eyes peeled. Or if you have any ideas let me know!

This is beautiful......it defines beauty!!!

I don't have any ideas on how you could
further develop this series, but it does
remind me of this sculpture I saw during
my first year of art school in which a girl
in my class had created a CD case using
over-sized screws and some old splintered
wood. It was very steampunk looking, but
completely function as well.
Maybe that can give you some ideas.
I wish I had some pictures of it, cause it
looked really good..
take care...drive safely
