Grand Prize
Daft Punk concert with Lego Night Mode
This was a
fun father and son project which took on epic proportions thanks to the
family being confined at home.
We’re both big Daft Punk fans. My teen years were spent listening to
Homework on my Walkman. My son’s 1st favorite song was Get Lucky. Nowadays our family
is regularly robot rocking around the world.
So we choose to remix
our 2 passions together. There are quite a few Lego Daft Punk projects on the
web but we thought we could take it to the next level.
My son built a prototype with the bricks we have at home
and I expanded the idea digitally. The disco
lights inside the pyramid were built with real
bricks first. It uses a motor to make a box of transparent
bricks rotate, then we make a pair of lights dangle inside the box.
This 2000
piece set was deceptively simple: it features a lot of geometric shapes, but it was quite a fun challenge since Lego bricks are rarely used for triangular
shapes, so we had to find ways to make all those angles click.
Robot Rock!
