Henrique Oliveira’s Arboreal Installation at Park MGM is Like ‘Seeing a Tree From Underground’
Awesome new installation from artist henrique oliveira, write-up from designboomb.
oliveira is widely known for his use of scavenged, weathered wood to create spatial constructions combining painting, architecture, and sculpture. the artist’s mammoth installation — mimicking the root structure of a tree — brings together wood sourced from his native brazil and the surrounding landscape, serving as a reminder of the natural environment that exists around the las vegas strip.
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.
