DIY an L-Band ground station : Dreamcatcher Antenna

I've been thinking about what it means to build an antenna as an object.

The starting point was a dreamcatcher — something traditionally made to catch dreams — and I started translating that idea into copper, wire, a dish, and an L-band receiver.

The technical rabbit hole led me to The Bald Geek's L-band ground-station work, which became a reference point for figuring out the feed, helix, reflector, and fabrication. Then I stumbled into the world of Outernet / Othernet and started thinking about the antenna less as a radio instrument and more as a kind of portal: a physical object pointed at the sky, waiting for information to arrive.

I'm still learning exactly what I want to do with that part of it, which is probably what interests me most. A dreamcatcher normally catches dreams. A Satellite catches signals.

Copper, satellites, radio waves, data, dreams — I'm still figuring out where the boundaries between those things are.

SSTV Scans: Images decoded from the sounds of low-orbital satellites

Slow-scan television (SSTV) is a picture transmission method used mainly by amateur radio operators to send and receive static photos or images via radio waves. Instead of live moving video, SSTV converts an image into audio tones that sound like a fax machine or dial-up modem, taking 30 to 120 seconds to draw a single picture line-by-line.

Signal, Ruin, and Cosmology

In the age of networks, communication appears seamless, immaterial. Yet beneath the surface lies a fragile infrastructure of wires, optics, satellites, and code. I wanted to build an installation that interrupts that invisibility. Radio transmissions, standing waves, geological artifacts, tangled cords, and a laser-to-solar-panel circuit exposes the translation of sound into light and back again through a tactile, precarious process.

Sound and Airflow

This research introduces a method of visualizing sound waves in air using Schlieren imaging—a technology that captures subtle changes in air density caused by acoustic vibrations. Re-imaging space weather data through a cloud of "smoke"

Cymatic Architectural

This project operates within the delicate balance of perception, motion, and unseen forces, creating a space where sound, gravity, and liquid dynamics interact in real-time. The integration of a radio antenna as a structural and conceptual element ties the work to a broader dialogue about signal, transmission, and cosmic reception, merging with its environment, it amplifies existing signals, revealing the hidden rhythms of space

Even Paradoxes Have Forms

The infinite regress of recursion” describes a system folding back into itself, generating layers that repeat at diminishing scales. The work employs a multi-screen architecture to test the Droste effect as a spatial and perceptual construct. Instead of appearing on a single image plane, recursion is distributed across a high-resolution display wall, creating a recursive environment rather than a closed loop. This translation from image to construct demonstrates how feedback, scale, and segmentation alter the perception of infinite regression. The study reveals recursion as both a technical method and a perceptual experiment—at once fragile in its imperfections and enduring in its capacity to regenerate.

Floating Points

This exploration of choreography and cosmology utilizes elements of modern dance techniques to express the powerful gravitational dynamics and the transformative energy of a star collapsing into a black hole, using body movements to convey the drama and intensity of this cosmic phenomenon. It is a study of ways to communicate data through its visual silence, compelling the viewer to reflect on the ephemeral versus the eternal through the forgotten stories embedded within what time leaves behind. It's an invitation to ponder, explore, and connect with the deeper, often overlooked, the emotions dissonance of the natural world.

Random Parallel Motion (RPM)

A speculative concept describing timeless events that echo across different moments in time, creating a cascading shift of energy Sound as movement, light as motion, energy as transformation.

Ice, Magnets, and the Torus

This project captures the fascinating interplay of a melting ice cube and magnetism, illustrating the transformation of states and energies. As the ice melts, it symbolizes change while the magnetic forces reveal unseen connections, creating a unique dialogue between nature and science.

Signal Forms: Bending Light, Sound, and Space

This project weaves light projections and electrical voltages, mapping signals through soft materials. It amplifies unseen forces, revealing how energy bends, transfers, and unfolds in space

Emergence

Emergence produces an immersive and imaginative environment through audio and motion-reactive geometric forms. This study connects the form of water and visual sound projections, creating an exhibition environment through the variation and volumetric manipulation of water-based technologies.
