I’ve been doing a little bit of maintenance on the rest of the site recently, trying to fill in some gaps and come up with new things to add, and so far I’ve completed the about section. You can now read my CV, and find out where to get more information about Processing, Arduino and [...]
Today I started working on some paper projects, making a little paper wing for my first little prototype. My hope is that I’ll be able to make a whole bunch of models, cards or maybe even build your own killer robot kits, made from paper of possibly felt. How can all this shiny technology be [...]
I decided to work on my thunder cloud a bit more, as the first one I made was a little bit too small to fit all the components onto. And I used a little bit too much glue. And he here is with the battery on… I’ve also been making a heart necklace. With a [...]
Here’s a couple of things that I’ve been working on today. I’ve recently got my mitts on some lovely felt, here are some of my ideas and experiments with it. I really like the idea behind this one, instead of making the LEDs the focal point of the piece I decided to place them on [...]
I’ve been making things for my currently non-existing etsy shop. Here’s a peak.
For those who did not see me squealing like the little girl I am on my twitter feed a little while back, my conductive mittens prototype was featured on Fashioning Technology and Craft. eek.
I’ve been working on my second mitten prototype, knitting some mittens from scratch, with the conductive thread knitted into the mitten itself, not added as a patch later. So far I’ve only knitted one of the mittens, a rectangle knitted in garter stitch, with the conductive thread knitted in a square around the size of [...]
I’ve gotten a bit impatient with learning how to knit mittens from scratch, and have decided to make some prototypes out of my already existing gloves. I decided to knit some conductive patches and attach them to the gloves. This is how I make my little conductive knitted patches. Once I get a couple of [...]
Here’s a quick little video of my knitted RFID weather interface, while it was being exhibited. I’m going to make another clearer video once my monitor is working properly again!
I’ve been making more progress on my little necklace, from getting a bit mad adding pearls to it, to finally making the final circuit, and tweaking the code. Here’s a snap of it’s unfinished innards, when I was just about to add the lilypad: Here it’s all glowy in the dark. OOH. I’m now ready [...]
