Analogue

It's important that life doesn't just revolve around computers and I make sure to do things with my hands other than type. These projects may involve computers in some way, but their final manifistation is corporial and physical.

If your everyday work involves computers, a keyboard is something you touch every day for hours on end. Objects that you interact with every day should be beautiful.

Theme for this build is "Lava", using black and charcoal colors with orange LED lighting, assembled from individual components. Initially I wanted the plate to be made from carbon fiber, but it was hard to find a manufacturer that would do a one off at a reasonable price, so I cut the plate from PETG. It ended up working really well, scattering light and reflecting it off the white PCB.
