We started looking at maybe connecting to the arduino via python serial, but I'm still not quite sure in what direction the code will be heading. Me and Vasil also started making a short financial breakdown of all the items we would need. https://www.vanallesenmeer.nl/Sensor-Afstandsmeter-Ultrasoon-HC-SR04 https://www.vanallesenmeer.nl/16-Keys-Capacitive-touch-TTP229-I2C-module https://www.vanallesenmeer.nl/BUIGBARE-LEDSTRIP-2835-COOLWHITE-6000K-60LEDS/MTR-ROL-%C3%80-5-METER https://www.vanallesenmeer.nl/Bare-Conductive-Electric-Paint-50ml Next we also managed to integrate 2...

Totally forget to write blog post about our try to make a user journey map, so here we go. Alexandra and I took the assignment to make a user journey map for the design document. We were not sure how to properly make it, so we made a small research. In delft design book there... Continue Reading →
python_research_and_implementation
Continuing my journey into discovering other environments or coding languages to help build our installation, my next stop was another already know to me coding language - Python. I used it in the beginning of this year - during the first quarter project. It also has a lot of sound libraries and I decided to... Continue Reading →
And prototype, again
I know, I know, it may seems that the only thing we are doing is a prototypes, but for previous installation we really needed to test it in order to know if we would be able to build it in actual size. Soooo, after we (building team) explained the situation with another installation they agreed... Continue Reading →
A “new” concept!
In the recent weeks we have been busy with devising and elaborating the concept of our music installation. Everyone was busy with software, prototypes, marketing and design. While building the first prototypes, Alexandra and Natalia found out that the chosen shapes are difficult to realize. Because of the round shapes, it is difficult to make... Continue Reading →
Inspiration Flyer & Poster
for today I did some inspiration for the the flyer & poster for our installation. We want the flyer and poster to fit with our target group. We want it to have a young look&feel with bright colours and symbols.
Impression pictures
On sunday 2 june Vera and I went to Muziek in de straten Festival. We wanted to see how the atmosphere was and what the setup of the festival would look like. For a better image, we have also taken some photos and video. The video will appear later, with this the pictures!
New sketches
As you know from the previous post we tested the building of a small prototype of our sketches and it didn't went that well, so we needed to think fast what we can do we that. Later that day I started looking for more inspiration on how what kind of shapes we can easily build.... Continue Reading →
