Automated Immich Photo Frame on Nest Hub

  • Post date 2026-02-11
  • Categories Random
Since migrating from Google Photos to Immich, I’ve been steadily reclaiming the features I actually used. One of the most glaring omissions was the ability to use my Google Nest Hub as a dynamic photo frame. I wanted a hands-off pipeline: I add a photo to a specific Display album, and it appears on my Hub automatically. No manual casting, no login [...]

For many years I've enjoyed creating timelapses. The earliest i still have is from Dreamhack 2002.

I have a FLIR ONE infrared camera that attaches to my phone. When I just got it I took it for a test and went out in the pitch black forest behind the house. And I was not alone. https://www.youtube.com/embed/DWdGXn6yoNE [...]

Snails

After the success with Illusions we started thinking of a new project, we wanted something more like a short film with a script and characters. It took several lunches before we came to the conclusion that we needed small animals that were easy to control, and didn't run away as soon as we started to film. The only animal that fitted that and that [...]

There're was quite a lot questions about how the effects in Illusions was created. Some guessed that we created a new flow-dynamics algorithm others had even stranger ideas. So here's a quick post about the process that finally led us to the effects in the video. First, it's all real fluids that anyone has in the fridge, into ordinary cold water. [...]

Just before DreamHack Summer 2011 Hannes Hanes Rahm and I sat down and talked about that it would be cool to actually submit something for the Wild-competition at DH which only was two weeks away. After a couple of hours brainstorm and research on Internet we had an idea, and Illusions is the result. This was the first Wild/Animation entry released [...]

I've attended all main Dreamhack events in some capacity (participant, crew, sponsor) since 1997. The first couple of years as a normal participant, starting in Borlänge and later in my home town Jönköping. When Dreamhack moved to Jönköping me and a friend got an idea of setting up webcams and streaming the buildup and event for everyone to see. This [...]
