“Ohm” is a series of electronic lo-fi noiseboxes/recorders made with laser cut grey cardboard.the interface and the inner circuits are printed with a special conductive paint.
by touching the printed surface the user can modify the sound in different ways.
My new noisemaker is my final design studies project. this project was directed by designer barak asher during 2008 , shenkar college of design, Israel.
the happy family

this is actually the first working model of the sampler
...and this is the inside

Elegant design. Form + function.
I want the whole family of them.
GREAT WORK!
wow awesome. what paint is it? How do you make sure components' the connection to the circuit board is sound?
outstanding! You just hit every possible geek factor for me. Lofi + sampling + physical computing.
very very impressed!
thanks guys!
this is a special (and vry expensive) formula of paint made with pure silver and copper.
the parts inside are attached with glue.
Is she silkscreening on some form of adhesive? It looks like the painting of the conductive paint is applied by hand without much precision and then the excess is peeled off. Is that your process? I'd love to know how you do this, it'd be great for so many applications!
yes, the paint applied on a pvc sticker that i designed by illustrator and was cut buy a plotter cutter.
i applied the paint on the the exposed areas with a small brush
and peeled it after the paint was dry.
..but there was silkscreen when i needed to print the words of the front pannel, on the buttom, and the circuit inside.
and this used a traditional silkscreening.
any plans on selling these? I would love to have one.
Just wondering what conductive paint you used for this project. I'm trying to hunt some down.
Oh my word, beautiful. Put me down for a set if ever they get produced. Amazing.
is that a greeting card module on that picture with your breadboard? any plans on publishing your circuit? it really looks like the most simple and effective lo fi sampler circuit I ve seen so far on the web. great project man!
