The Palapian's Spaceship

cstenkamp@gmail.com (Chris Stenkamp) — Sat, 28 Jun 2025 00:00:00 +0000

An interactive, networked spaceship you can actually board: players complete (or sabotage) missions across a dozen physical interfaces - buttons, joysticks, LED boards, sensors, etc - to either launch the ship or doom it, with everything driven by a Python/ESP/Unity stack. It’s modular, auto-resets regularly, and scales to festival crowds without manual babysitting.

Your browser doesn't support embedded videos, but don't worry, you can download it and watch it with your favorite video player!

First, there was the infamous PoolnudelschlagapparatPool Noodle Hitting Aparatus (PNHA). At Fusion Festival 2023, we had some pool noodles, some windshield wiper motors, and a wood construct to put a simple game into, so we did the only sensible thing to combine those things: You play Flappy Bird, and if you are too bad, you get hit with a pool noodle.

Relay-Boxes

A universal relay box for interactive builds: Ethernet-controlled with an integrated PSU, switching 230V, 12V, 5V and dry relays via OSC or Art-Net. I use it across projects like my Supertuxkart and the Palapa Spaceship to drive lights, fog, motors, and effects with simple, robust control.

CAD and 3D-Printing

Having learned my ways on Theseus’ Anet A8 and now running a boringly reliable Bambu P1S, I use 3D printing and self-taught CAD as basic infrastructure for most of my hardware projects, some of which are listed here.

Button-Board

After finally (and only for now) accepting that a reliable sound2light-bassline-detection is probably more trouble than it’s worth, I next needed a way for tap2bpm instead. This, however, required new Hardware, and thus, I developed this Button-Board.

Stringart-Lamp

cstenkamp@gmail.com (Chris Stenkamp) — Sun, 27 Sep 2020 00:00:00 +0000

This is a lampshade made of string, made for a free-standing lamp with a single light bulb in it. It is designed dim the bulb as little as possible and just be a pretty ornament whether the light is turned on or off. As the bulb is pretty visible inside the shade, I recommend a pretty one with warm light, such as an Edison-bulb.
