Picture frames that come alive.

Real frames on a wall, one TV hidden behind them. Every frame shows its own photo or video.

Change what's on the wall. Same wall, same frames, filmed in my living room.

Should I sell it?

I built this wall for my family and never meant it to leave the house. Then an electrician came to fit a car charger, stopped in front of it and asked if he could buy one.

So before I build anything else, I'm asking. Would you want one?

What would suit you? Optional
What would you expect to pay? Optional

One email if this goes ahead, and nothing else. What is kept and why.

What you're looking at

Three frames on the wall: a heart, a small gilt frame and a tall gilt frame, each holding a family photo.

Real frames on a real wall

Nothing on the wall looks like a screen. With still photos in the frames, it passes for a wall of prints. Mine has ten frames. Yours could have as many or as few as you like.

The edge of the papered panel that carries the frames, sitting just proud of the wall behind it.

One television behind all of them

The frames are openings in a papered panel that hangs in front of an ordinary TV. A small computer sends every opening its own picture, and one photo from a phone tells it where each opening is.

The same frames, each now showing a different room of a pixel-art spaceship: crew quarters, an observatory.

Photos, videos, or one world

Photos that sit still like prints. Clips that play. Or a single place spread across the wall, like a ship with a different room in every frame.

Rather make them yourself?

You may not want one of mine. If you build frames, furniture or fitted interiors, you may want to make the wall for your own customers and run it on my software.

That is one of the ways this could go: a licence for people who manufacture the wall or sell it as a kit. Choose “A licence to make them” in the form and tell me what you make.
