through a collaged mix of architectural elements, photography and landscape imagery, designer matthias jung dreams up his ‘surreal houses’ series, comprising colorful and whimsical residences, apartments and skyscrapers. structural styles are combined together to form eclectic panoramas of homes within sprawling natural settings — ‘kurhaus ost’ depicts a fragmented, brutalist-style construction cut and pasted together, stilted on a series of long support poles; ‘abendland’ is a multi-level building that floats a stained-glass window in the air like a giant balloon; ‘expedition zum ostpol’ hovers above the surface of the earth with a monumental, semi-circular wheel as its base. the collection of imagery brings the viewer to an imaginary place of fiction and fantasy, where the structurally impossible and ordinary is turned into a bizarre and charming surreal space.
Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, TinyGO, or even use the Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
