7:53 "maybe it's capturing something about your soul"
*zoom in on the trash mirror*
LOL! I saw that, and it went right over my head.
?
define soul
😂😂😂
Hahahaha 😂😂😂
I’ve never been so interested in mirrors before
This is really awesome
You'd be surprised how many people can't live without a mirror...
-4 Subscribers with a hammer addiction lmao i see u everywhere, we must either have similar tastes or no lives haha. Btw love the prof pic
Asher schmidt not everything is about yourself, dont hate on them
I swear I see you on most videos I watch.
I thought you said ‘minors’ omg
If this artwork sold for 100 million, I'll be like, "yeah that makes sense".
This is one of those few pieces of artwork that are actually crazy enough to be worth ludicrous sums of money. In my opinion, at least.

“It’s capturing part of your soul” Shows person in front of trash mirror
@Yize Dai Because the garbage is part of our existence in the material world, like our physical body and our physiological necessities, and the co2 that we exhale. Everything in the world we perceive is momentum and the concept of our existence and souls is based on the pulse of reality. Only a humble soul identifies himself on the ground, the air, and our eschatological nature, as part of a reflection of a master plan.
@Yize Dai I respect your opinion, that's why it's called art.
@Yize Dai wooooosh
@Yize Dai ok simpleton
Perfect for instagram models
Imagine if someone robbed his house and all of the mirrors just started moving when they walked around
And it's one of the really loud ones that just start clicking
It'd be dope to capture that information and have it sent somewhere
thatd be terrifying
The thief would become mesmerized, and continue to look at themselves while gesturing until the police arrive.
or the mirror just started shape a woman while no one stands in front of it
"The art doesn't exist without a viewer." So much sense in these words
No, it’d still exist. It just wouldn’t be seen.
@@larjkok1184 Whole word doesn't exist without a humans.

Actually, the art would not exist without funding!
Art is what you believe in as everything is made of art

underrated comment
While watching a movie on your phone with the cc turned on...and then later wondering why you failed the class, while simultenously not caring that your inconsiderate actions were most likely distracting to others. Idiot.
@@HangTimeDeluxe | WOW! ... all that, ---and a bag of chips ...
Now that's art. Real modern ART!
My thoughts exactly. I need to see one made by controlling ferro fluid now!
You don't get it man....
Real modern art is an empty canvas or a banana duck taped into a wall...
If it's more complex than that, prob not real art xD
Are you saying throwing a candy bar wrapper on the floor isn't art? Or a urinal with artist initials on it?
hitech art
@@notbrad4873you mean Fountain by Duchamp? Which was submitted to an art gallery in 1917 but was rejected for "not being art" which thus lead to Dadaism and the ever present question of "what actually is art"?
"My pieces are very boring when there's not a person in front of them" - love it!
They MIGHT be very boring when there's not a person in front of them, but you can never know.

@@olejohnson5159 Everyone knows the contemporary art as modern art, don't be so picky with the terms
@@poke_1879 well that doesn't make it right doesnt it?
@@SuperLovehp It actually does, when everyone uses a word with a different meaning than the original for a long time that becomes its new meaning. Furniture, for example, meant equipment a long time ago but since everyone started to use to describe house items then it's meaning changed
@@poke_1879 ok whatever makes you happy. I'm just glad you start to appreciate art.

“The wooden mirror”
You’ll never hear that again
Penguin mirror say hi
why not? transparent wood material exists now
""The wooden mirror" You’ll never hear that again" - STOPYOURCLICKBAIT Bruh 2019
you heard it again
Of course we won't. Now he is working on "The Glass Baseball Bat", "The Vestproof Bullet", and "The Liquid Hand-Towels." :-)
At least you can’t break it and get 7 years bad luck
It seems so simple and yet futuristic and advanced.
*simple*
It can be simple to build in large scale
He's like a modern daedalus
it's pretty simple... if he's smart he will only use a grayscale camera and an IR sensor with a fixed distance range for noise reduction... combine it into a matrix on a loop assuming Arduino and update the matrix on a fixed interval to seem more fluid
Actually this technology had been created in 1929 according to this link: en.m.wikibooks.org/wiki/The_Computer_Revolution/Peripherals/Monitors
The triangle With the speedometer thing is actually a really cool idea its the same as his other projects but completely different in the mechanics
That is simply incredible, and the artist seems to have a really respectable viewpoint of his craft.
0:31 Nice now i can finally pretend to be Doctor Strange bending reality
lmao
Lol
Lmao

a Zuzu comment without 1k likes?! Nani?!
Now put those mirrors in front of eachother, jump in between them for a second and then watch what happens. I'd love to try that!
It would depend on the delay between the sensing and displaying of the two mirrors. If you had them slightly out of time with one and other you could get a repeated moving reflection of when you jumped out of the way maybe?
mirror.exe has stopped working
if you had the timing with some luck it would follow each other until the arduino toast
And that's how a black hole forms.
thats how an oculus rift is formed
When he looks in the mirror, he sees a genius.
He’s so amazing and humble.
His comments are really intreresting. He puts a lot of throughts in his art and it makes even more fascinating
*_hey WIRED where's a link that tells us where we can go to see Rozin's art_*
It says "Bitforms Gallery, New York" in the top right corner of the vid.

underrated comment XDD
Is that PG?
Lol
So hardwork , nobody can even think of and he did a lot of advancement in this field .Hats off to him
It’s funny! That first mirror he made still lives in my school, in the lobby of the institute he’s a part of. I saw it pretty much every day on my way to class for a good chunk of college
I'm honestly impressed by his speech. He gets to the point immediately plus is completely understandable, and I appreciate that a lot.
these types of human beings move the world in a positive direction. thank this man for a gift of sharing his gift
@Under the Surface and thus a narcissist
Hypothetical: thousands of people might have artistic skill at or above this level, but almost none can afford the time or resources to do it. Could you afford to take a year to build an expensive computer controlled mechanical display piece? I appreciate the art, but let's not lose sight of the fact that 99% of the 'gift' or 'genius' on display here is the extraordinary privilege required to put it into practice.
an artist like him that gets into electronic and programming build his own creative creation should be respected.
I saw his art years ago . Seeing his interview is so awesome to know what he thinks behind it all 🥰
If you think about it, all the mirrors in the store are used...
Wow. I never thought of it that way
*illuminati plays*
Repost
Can you explain what you mean about all mirrors in the store are used?
Gravii Tea they are used because they have reflected stuff
That pompom one, I want it in my house. It's truly amazing, it' like ink blotting onto a canvas. Beautiful
i love that one too
yesss
It's similar to how an e-ink display works, actually!
Really gorgeous! And strangely haunting.
I lost years and years watching youtube and you learned and built this amazing art in 1 year, wow
This man impressed me. I thought his interpretations of ones thoughts about his results were spot on.
Spectacular! As a mechanical engineer, I love this novel use of tech and hardware.
6:11 mind blown.
Same
He's talented. Not so much people actually can be good at programming and in handwork at the same time.
I am, BITE ME!
I mean. Anyone could if they put time and effort into it.
@@christianboi7690 That's the thing though. Only a few people are willing to put in the time and effort. Many people end up giving up if they aren't truly passionate about what they are doing (this also applies to playing an instrument, cooking, learning a foreign language, etc.)
@@christianboi7690 For some it would take a lifetime of hand holding to get to that level. It's the unfortunate reality of the human condition. Others can be self taught in a few weeks.
@@canadajim the programming part is really very easy tho, buddy
this is one of the most beautiful things ive ever heard of or seen
Not only is the concept for these works great but all the execution of all the different variations is great
Huge respect to this man. Make sure to continue making your art
i bet if he would put his smarts to pure Science we would have functional mech suit by now lol
3 lashes of whip if he is slacking. No exiting the studio for more then 10 minutes smoke break a day. We make sure he continues making this art, komrad.

Even tho he's explaining it I still have no idea how it works lol....just amazing keep doing you sir, beautiful art
Camera + a lot of servo motors
don't be so dense, just apply yourself and look at it closely
@@DrRiq some people dont like to look into things so they can just experience it as magic... 👌👌👌 I prefer to look into things myself but I'm just saying there are people who prefer not to and have understandable reasoning for it...
@@ErynIstar there's a difference between not wanting to spoil the magic of something by keeping yourself willfully unaware of the particular mechanics, and proudly floricking in denseness when the explanation is literally right in front of you and yet you choose to publicly express your ignorance. I feel like OP does get how the shade of a pixel can be expressed by altering the angle of reflected light; for some reason she felt it's cooler to be childishly enchanted on a CZcams comment, however.
*imagine looking at garbage and the garbage looks at you*
Worse, you look at the garbage and the garbage looks like you
Soo.. me looking at myself?
Somewhat Nietzschean: "And if you gaze for long into an abyss, the abyss gazes also into you."

Imagine a garbage knew how to create a youtube account and putting Mario as profile picture

It's so satisfying to watch. I wish that I could build one of these.
Finally mirror technology is moving forward. So tired of my old model that accurately reflects what is in front of it.
Well, the trash mirror would still be the same as the old ones for me tbh
mine has a major defect as well... everytime i look at it i see the same face... so i stopped looking at it.
You think you have it bad? Wait until Dracula casts his gaze upon this.
Everytime i find a funny or ugly picture on my phone i show whoever is next to me my awesome new mirror app and they look at it and see the ugly or funny pic as their reflection heheheh
🤣
These mirrors the future. Unique and visually stunning.

When someone with depression looks at the piece made of garbage. “I’m worthless!”

I guess that is why you don’t compare yourself to people.
*Too bad every mirror I look at usually breaks into a million little pieces*
Cool, now you can use the pieces to build a piece of art like in the video
Maybe that's because you don't have a mustache

THIS is modern art; Not some pretentious bs like an empty canvas.
That's postmodernism. Empty canvas has been dated since the 60s.
no, now its some stupid label. you've ruined it.
@Mr.Cenourinha san Marcel Duchamp *might help influence post-modernism but for the most part he quit art for chess in the 1930s. He belongs to the old world of DaDaism. Some branches of post-modernist artist try too hard to emulate Suprematism of the 1910s.
