a work of art for sure
here are some artworks from Jason Molfessis (1925-2009)
The leaflet pictures are from an exhibition held in Athens in 1996.

my kind of thread 
Posted about it before elsewhere but here’s The Fort Processor, which we (Isn’tses) developed as part of Fort Process sound art festival. It’s based on the layout of Newhaven Fort where the event takes place, and it mangles external signals and/or generates light and touch controlled sounds. More info and PCB orders at http://isntses.co.uk/blog or you can buy a full kit from Thonk,
Come and build one with us at our workshops:

Cross posting these again from the pictures thread, since this is where they belong
with another one I did before as a test:
This thread wouldnt be complete without boldport:
Maybe stretching the PCB in this title, but still relevant I think, Mohit Bhoite:

While not quite PCB art, this is an amazing breadboard layout of an 8 bit computer by Ben Eater that I just had to share somewhere!

Great thread btw! I’ve been looking around for other PCB art for a little while now.
Here are some others I had saved.

learning about PCB manufacturing/assembly rn and as a printmaker I can’t help but notice the overlap in process. is there anyone working in-between these two ?

We made some Isn’tses blank panels Pleased with how they came out. So many possibilities with the different layers when you don’t actually have to make a functioning circuit

These are really great!
EDIT due to no self-replies:
We made some more Isn’tses blank panels, black and gold this time, happy how they came out. Accidentally made one of them matte black, not sure which I prefer

Not sure if there is a better thread, but a Patching Panda Ephemere just arrived, and I wanted share this artwork on the back. 1) I like it, 2) I appreciate that the aesthetics and visuals used in Eurorack continue to expand.
I’ve only played with it for 5 minutes, but it feels like what I was after (a quick way to create, loop, and mangle more organic feeling CV).

Looking at PCBs for modules is a great way to learn about module design. Is there a place to share photos like this, so we can all see the topography of interesting and well-known circuits?

We made some new Isn’tses blank panels… One of them we experimented with chunkier areas of gold and it came out very nice, will try more of that sort of thing in future 
Discovered a while back that the PCB material reacts strongly to UV light which is a happy accident

Wow these look so good! What program did you use to put together the gerber files for these?
Thanks! We just use kicad. Artwork is drawn on paper by Lisa, scanned, cleaned up, layered and exported as PNGs at the right size/resolution using photoshop, converted to footprints using the Bitmap to Component utility in kicad, then some text-file search-and-replace hacking to get certain things onto layers that it won’t let you put artwork on by default, then the footprints are placed on an edge-cuts outline of the panel in PCBnew, and the back filled with a blank copper plane (which doesn’t half confuse the PCB fab)
There are better ways I’m sure 
but it works.
