Welcome to my workshop. It’s a little messy, I know – watch out for those flanges – step right in. Check this out, it’s one of my first creations, the Locomotivemobile. It’s a Segway that’s powered by steam. Pretty cool, right? You thought steam power was dead, but no: I worked it into new technology and gave it a second life.
Here’s my latest work, the SiliconDust HDHomeRun Prime Tuner. It harnesses the power of television and puts it right on your computer, so you can watch and record your favorite shows from any computer in your network. Isn’t that cool? I’m like a Dr. Frankenstein – I re-animate old, dying technologies and give them new life! Nobody thought putting TV on a computer was worthwhile, what with streaming videos and whatnot. But that’s the whole point!
The SiliconDust tuner even connects to iPads, so you can watch old reruns of Murder, She Wrote right on your tablet! It’s that combination of new and old that really gives my work vitality. Of course, nobody would really want to do that, but the fact that you can do it makes it art.
What are my upcoming projects? Well, I was thinking of making a giant steam-powered spider that could chase Will Smith across the Wild West. Just a thought.
