I found this cool little thing yesterday on the BBC website, called Blast Studio. It's a brand new interactive studio space for people to play with. The Blast Studio gives you an opportunity to add to a community art installation that will be created over the next four weeks.
Housed in the Topolski studio at London's Southbank Centre, this initiative allows you to create a real exhibit. Four machines provide you with the tools to remotely control how you paint and design the space. You have a choice of a cool glue gun, paint pellet machine, printer or hanging light strips all directed from your computer. You can then watch all the action online.
I had a go on the paint pellet machine as well as the hanging light strips. Pretty cool idea. You have to 'queue' up but due to the time limits apposed on everybody, it soon goes down and it tells you how long before your turn so you can always go and do something else in the meantime.
The Studio is live everyday between 12pm and 12am, from 12th May till 9th June.
