Monday Morning
Introductions
Class Overview: Why we’re here and schedule overview
Opening Sketching exercise - Take 15 minutes and draw the following:
1. Your favorite musical instrument 2. Something you think you could make this week 3. Something you could create if money, time, knowledge and physics were not considerations
Context / history / examples Signal flow and toolchain
Electronics overview
Monday Afternoon Background and Intro To Arduino
Arduino Hands on Lecture
Goal: send data, receive data
Challenge: Make an interesting instrument with one button
Tuesday Morning
One-button show and tell
Gestures - discrete vs. continuous
Continuous sensing in Arduino -- A/D and sending Serial
Scaling data in Max and/or in arduino
Go through sensors: FSR Bend Photocell Pot Softpot Hall Effect
Tuesday Afternoon Solder your accelerometer and proximity
Sensors: Proximity Accelerometer
Split off Max pro users from beginners
Goal: Create a musical interaction. using 1 continuous and 1 discrete sensor. Think about how the physical gestures that you are using and the type of sensor (continuous or discrete) interact with the sounds you are controlling.
Homework: Come up with 2 ideas for your performance. Sketch them out. Include details such as materials, sounds, sensors, gestures.
Wednesday Morning
Present your ideas
Serial data transitioning into MIDI
Making Connectors
Wednesday Afternoon
Advanced/ other sensing Encoders, Capacitive Piezo/microphone
Pair up and help each other narrow down your ideas for final projects.
Thursday Morning
