Electrocoustic Jellymuse, by Byron Walker, Maria Malone, and Jack Cook
This is the documentation of our Music 250A project: an interactive, aesthetic, and acoustic jellyfish sculpture that uses electronic components, fiber optics, and water to allow a user to create sound in unique ways.

Project Goals
For a minimally viable product: at the bare minimum, we need to have a project that generates sound in a semi-intuitive way and responds appropriately to user input. For this, we need an appropriately sized acrylic dome which houses speakers and an Arduino kit. The dome would have some way of directing water poured over it into a network of incomplete circuits that, when completed by the water, would generate specific sounds; at a bare minimum we would like 4, but would hope to have 6. Additionally we would like to connect resistive wires and/or flex sensors to act as the jellyfish's tentacles - these would also generate sound depending on how the user interacts with them.
What we want done by the final deadline:
