Circuit Bending:
Well this project has involved soldering, and electronic diagrams that I'm terrible at deciphering. I hated the soldering in the wearable interface project which meant that I was dreading doing it for this project but I found it a hell of a lot easier and actually doable. As I said, I'm not good at reading the electronic diagram things. Fortunately I have some very helpful friends and so thankyou to Chis(Clifton) for helping me so much, I definitely appreciate it : ).
So everyone was making um, devices I guess, to use in an improv performance. We had been put into groups of 3 with people that we wouldn't usually work with, I was put with Nick and Oliver. The only time that I'd ever worked with Nick was for one day in the orientation week and I'd never worked with Oliver. I knew both of them though and enjoyed working with them. The device I used for our performance was called 'The Champ' and it used a piezo disk to make sound. I played through a speaker and also had a volume control. Here are some photos of it below.
I was understandably nervous before our presentation with not much idea of what I was going to do. It wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be and the criticism and feedback we got wasn't too bad. Both are below:
