“B1NR” by DICTO is an innovative, open-source “binary” sculpture system created by the Osaka-based sculptor, using just two standardized components—PET bottle security rings as multi-notch nodes and nylon zip ties as tensioned connectors—to build complex geometric structures from everyday waste.
Why “B1NR”?
The name “B1NR” is a stylized, leet-speak reimagining of “binary,” directly reflecting the system’s strict two-part material ontology: rings (1) and ties (0), evoking digital code through looped nodes and linear edges. This monochrome duality aligns with black-white aesthetics, wordplay on binding/connecting, and the philosophical tension of connection/separation in modular art.
Binary Connection
Like binary code’s 1s and 0s generating infinite complexity from simplicity, B1NR combines rings’ variable notches (unfolded for 3–5+ ports, unlike DeltaZips’ fixed triangles) with zip ties to form diverse polyhedra—from icosahedral frames and dodecahedral DICTOspheres to volumetric hybrids with interlocking PET bottles—all without proprietary parts. This unlocks free, public eco-sculptures via simple notch-pattern rules.
"Samantha Pennicott" commission original 1 of 1 2008
This particular piece, is very personal to me, it was commissioned by the parents of a 19 year old Art student called Samantha Penlicot.
Samantha suffered from epilepsy and sadly died as a result.
Her father was a policeman and had had a tattoo done of a fairy sitting on a cloud, which was a design/sketch done by Samantha.
They sent me a photograph of the Tattoo, and several photos of Samantha, who I have to say was a beautiful young Lady, full of joy and genuine happiness.
Anyway the spiritual connection with Samantha's sculpture was extremely moving, and I quite often found myself in tears whilst working on her construction.
In July 2006, Mike, Samantha's father was presented with a posthumous BA Hons Degree for Sam – the work she had completed for her degree in Interior Design was enough to ensure she was awarded the accolade she so richly deserved.

Bluemaris
Aberllefenni Slate Quarry is a mystical location to visit, in an area steeped in the history of slate mining. Taking the footpath from Aberllefenni to Bluemaris I came across this partly hidden building which encapsulates the general feel of the area as nature begins to take hold again.

AA Sentry Box
The AA Sentry Box at Devil’s Bridge would have been a welcome sight for their patrolmen, offering shelter from bad weather while looking for troubled motorists. First introduced in 1912, there were more than 600 boxes by the Second World War. However, as technology developed, telephones became smaller and sentry boxes disappeared. Now only 19 sentry boxes survive with eight having Grade-II listed status.
