A freelancer whose clients include Adobe, Apple and Samsung, Ori Toor loves nothing more than to doodle. His pieces in his ‘Gibberish #24’ series can take days, even months to create. “I can sometimes understand what was going through my mind at the time,” he tells Creative Boom. “It’s a bit like analysing your dreams. There’s logic but it’s a very personal one, although I hope it’s relatable somehow on a subconscious level.”
Each artwork starts organically with no thought as to how it might develop. “The process is just opening a new file in Photoshop and starting to draw lines,” he explains. “I don’t do any construction lines. I just draw. It’s all improvised because I find it more fun that way. Colouring is the same. Dropping colours with the paint bucket and changing them a lot until I’m happy.”

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.
Have an amazing project to share? The Electronics Show and Tell is every Wednesday at 7pm ET! To join, head over to YouTube and check out the show’s live chat – we’ll post the link there.
