If it all sounds too much, Mrs Kramlich points out that living with media art is really no different from living with fixed-image art. (The couple have works by Andy Warhol and Joseph Beuys in their mock-Tudor San Francisco home.) The difference, she adds with an eye to California's electricity troubles, is that you have an on-off switch and when the images vanish, the house is an artwork of its own.
The screen can also be turned on and off using the switch, enabling one-touch operations.
The earpiece has an on-off switch, a three-stage volume control and uses a rechargeable battery.
Her Hedda has a doll-like beauty and a smile that she turns on and off like a switch.
Local communities supported the bid, with residents in Talybont-on-Usk holding their own Star Party and organising a community light switch off.
Software might be able to offer a good on-screen volume control option and it might be able to mitigate the off switch problem a little, but not enough to keep either issues from being extremely annoying.
The two controls on top are all you need to get the essential jobs done with this device, a button for switching it on and off (and taking stills) and the sliding record switch -- this set-up also means you can physically feel if it's recording, even when you can't see it.

They put on 55 before a switch to Ollie Rayner's off-spin brought the visitors fortune and Troughton, playing defensively at a leg-side delivery, lost his balance, the ball rebounding off Hodd's pads for a stumping.
It was the cue for the Robins to move up a gear as Galea's sharp switch in direction and hand-off got them off the mark on seven minutes and handed Dobson an easy conversion.
We're not exactly sure what makes these virus transistors so special, but apparently the transistors they've built out of the nano-coated strands, and sandwiched between two electrodes, are easy to switch between ON and OFF states, since they don't need to build up a charge at a lame-o capacitor before they can be switched.
