Ken Murphy will demonstrate a DIY time-lapse photography rig like the one he built in MAKE Volume 21, and his amazing time-lapse movies of the sky, showing the dynamics of weather, light, and other atmospheric phenomena.

This is a time-lapse visualization of the sky, showing the dynamics of weather, light, and other atmospheric phenomena over a long span of time. Still images of the sky are captured every 10 seconds from a DIY camera rig (similar to my article in issue 21). These are compiled into a large grid of time-lapse movies, each representing a day, and arranged consecutively. This is currently a work-in-progress, and is presently on display at the Exploratorium (I am a resident artist). My intention is to eventually create a large projected piece, which will display a grid of 365 movies playing in parallel. I've been collecting images since July '09.
Ken Murphy is a programmer, musician, and artist, and tinkerer. He likes making time-lapse movies, and wrote a book called Blinkybugs, which teaches kids how to make little, blinking insects.
