Remake Google's Paper Signals: This practice exercise will invite you to create an interesting notification using either a solenoid, a servo, a brushless fan or vibrating disk. You’ll get familiar...more

Prepare a simple 2-in (sensors or inputs) 1-out (LED) device (i.e. your project will use three components (resistors and wire don't count!)  and at least one must be a sensor). Present a really sim...more

Remake a basic smart light bulb with this exercise: create a basic LED circuit, link it to online connectivity and control it from anywhere!

Explore a spooky line of design inquiry that reveals an aspect of a system that is hidden. Make (an aspect of) a hidden system visible, tangible, perceivable, or discussable through a designed art...more

Reflecting on the topics, readings, and projects introduced, work collaboratively to prepare a working prototype of an thought-provoking IoT experience.

This practice exercise will challenge you to create an ambient calendar alert using a neopixel strip. By the end of the project, you’ll have connected your Particle device to your Google Calendar t...more

Prepare a simple 2-in (sensors or inputs), 1-out (LEDs) device (i.e. your project will use three components and at least one must be a sensor). Present a simple use case for a connected sensing dev...more

Taking cues from Memorials for the Future and the Final Cut, design a hybrid space to act as a site of memorial in a 10 year horizon. The monument should be a site of memorial for of an individual ...more

Design a hybrid ritual for data loss (the forgetting or dispossessing of digital memories) supported with one or more tangible (physical/digital) objects. Image Credit: Forget Booth by Zain Isla...more

Develop a hybrid object (tangible, connected object) for memory; this critical prototype should embody, externalize or augment your memory through digital and computational processes. Image Cre...more

Design a hybrid ritual for data loss (the forgetting or dispossessing of digital memories) supported with one or more tangible (physical/digital) objects

This pool is a collection of projects, samples, research and proposals made by students taking the E-Textiles Micro Course

Develop a experiential / speculative design for a memory prothesis; a tangible device to support memory.

Physical computing refers to the design and construction of physical systems that use a mix of software and hardware to sense and respond to the surrounding world. Such systems blend digital and ph...more
