TV.gif
A wall-mounted cathode-ray tube TV that plays a new GIF daily.
I designed and built an ever-changing digital-physical artwork that combines classic and modern technology.
The TV.gif updates once per day with a new GIF, pulled from a large bank of classic animated movies. The device is powered by an ESP32, which handles downloading the GIFs and outputs video to the TV.
