Old PCs Made Into Sunset: Gorgeous & Geeky

By Eric Tuesday October 7, 2008

Old computers. These days, they aren’t good for much, save for making them into a mailbox or something. Artist Sandy Smith… well, she had other ideas.

Behold, Mauritian Sunset. That’s the name of this neat looking art installation at the Embassy Gallery in Edinburgh, Scotland. Placed inside a darkened room, this wall of PCs was designed to create an electronic sunset. The result is a truly beautiful effect.

The back of the installation is a bit scary looking. Screams electrical fire. Take a look at that shot after the jump. Want to see some shots of the sunset? Visit Sandy’s website for more.

About this Blog

What's it mean to be a geek? Wikipedia defines a geek as "a peculiar or otherwise odd person, especially one who is perceived to be overly intellectual" and describes "one with low social skills, regardless of intelligence." Geekadelphia is a bunch of geeks blogging (and drawing) about all-that-is-geek in the City of Brotherly Love and beyond. We don't claim to be peculiar, odd, overly intellectual, lacking in social skills, hermits, hackers, or neophiliacs. We don't call everyone "n00bs" or "pwn" people on a daily basis. We've never watched Beauty & The Geek or Beat The Geeks when they were on television, though we did enjoy Freaks & Geeks. Who didn't? We do, however, claim to love video games, computers, pointless-inventions, high budget over-the-top action movies, useless gadgets, comic books, South Park, WoW, Family Guy, Star Wars, and consequently, episodes of South Park and Family Guy that make fun of WoW and Star Wars. Our goal? To talk about geeky things that interest us and highlight events, stores, and people in Philadelphia who, like us, are geeky. Welcome to Geekadelphia. Enjoy your stay... n00b.
