Pong-Mechanik

by Karel Thönissen

Niklas Roy has built a computer game without a computer: Pong-Mechanik. Pong was one of the first computer games in arcade halls. Niklas remade the game with only mechanical and electro-mechanical parts. Very clever, very geeky. In his galery, one will find other geeky installations, for example, this GrafikDemo which uses only a single part from a computer: the casing. Watch the videos!.

I wrote earlier in my weblog on Pong on the facade of the Bibliothèque Nationale François Mitterand in Paris.
