I think we found something. a path. a dancing path. sort of an invisible dance partner! a device that will react on movement and sound, that becomes your substitute for a dance partner, or rather something that can function as a communication between you and someone dancing with you far away.......  ¶ 3:53 AM 0 comments -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- cool thing. http://www.idsa.org/idea/idea2005/g133.htm  ¶ 2:04 PM 0 comments or........something else.   ¶ 2:02 PM 0 comments like a cat!   ¶ 1:56 PM 0 comments mobile! maybe it could be sort of mobile, something to bring on the walk home in the dark, sort of a comfort, like a flashlight with personality.........that could produce some sort of sound (music?) and light, maybe heat...well. something like that? a soothing thing? that you can have beside you in the bed if you can´t sleep. the sound could be soft, sort of like a cat who purrs. but what should it react on when you are in fact asleep? breathing?
and no, I have no idea how to make this but lets start with the ideas and think about practical matters later. hehe.  ¶ 1:49 PM 0 comments thinking and thinking hey you over there!

this is a small draft to try finding my way in the matter of thinking about ideas.

we talked about the light and the sound. light meets light and sound meets sound or something like that. input and output. something that reacts on something else. and suddenly I remembered that guy who had the masters examination who really moved us. his project was all about the conversation, the communication and how you can illustrate that in different ways, and I´m thinking that its just what we are working with here. the communication between input and output. conversation between a sound that turns into a light or vice versa. or something else.

I tried to explain to you why I was thinking about the films. and not only because I think that film is fantastic, but because its a medium with so many components. light and sound and movement. imitation of life. sometimes when I am home alone I put on the TV, maybe not to watch a programme, but to have something to be surrounded by. a voice, a movement, a light. imitation of life.

I am very interested by that. how you could make a film that is actually not a film, but very simplified. light and sound that changes. a box or a bowl or something very simple that becomes sort of a personality.  ¶ 1:32 PM 0 comments -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 4 magda ::intern post:: here we go -
just
some
basic
combinations
of
interaction.
expl. :
a, c = INPUT
b, d = OUTPUT

stop me if i'm wrong..   ¶ 1:44 PM 0 comments -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ANALOGin put. JUST TESTING A BASIC THING..


int yelPin = 12; //led in digitalpin 12
int s = 3; //analog sensor in analogpin 3
int f =0; //function set on 0 value (=off)

void setup()
{
pinMode(yelPin, OUTPUT); // sets the pins as output
*)pinMode (s, INPUT); //sets the analog sensor as input
*)as seen in Arduino guide, it doesn't have to
been written at all
}
void loop()
{
f=analogRead (s);

if (f >80 ) {
digitalWrite(yelPin,HIGH); //if the sensor's value is bigger than 80,
the LED is on, otherwise it's turned off
}

else {
digitalWrite (yelPin, LOW);
}

}

somehow, in some direction. it is a slow research, and yes, quite frustrating sometimes. moving in to a new area is always a little scary, and one might feel like giving up (me) sometimes. but lets consider this a research both of a new technique and of our own state of mind. how one can develop a stronger sence of patience and trying to be modest........

i am curious but still not quite convinced.......:-)  ¶ 5:59 AM 0 comments -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 01 yo...this ''sit(t)ie-writie'' substitute for walkie-talkie for the time being..(to stay within the transformations' boundaries)..well, we'll see how it works .:)
the clumsy fingers for the first time..
we have not that much to write about yet.we're kinda stuck in a strange circle of frustration and excitement -mixed together in our ''relationship'' to Arduino.
..yeah,those same old clumsy fingers for the second time + maybe the low level of coffeine and/or sugar in our bodies most of the time.
one of us gets sometimes easy impatient [eller hur?;)] and the other one uses too much F-words in between.
but...stay tuned! and goodnite*
