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
Manipulate a system or technical process to produce an outcome or effect that someone might struggle to explain.
Fabrication facilities are spread across the CMU campus and are maintained by academic departments, student clubs, and research groups. For this project, you will form teams organized around a...more
Hello, please provide any feedback as you want.
It seems like you're drawing inspiration from the paper leaves hanging from the ceiling. This uses the same material, paper, to give the material in bulk a new form. I wonder what the significance will be of a giant paper dragon hanging from the ceiling. Also, swaying it in some manner, by hand or using a vent, and projecting lights of different color are interesting options to explore.
Working in small groups, develop a digital exhibition to engage invited guests (and potentially wider audiences) in Spooky Technology. Each group will prepare one prototype with supporting diagetic...more
Engage a line of spooky inquiry. Unsettle the present by making a creative technology. Prepare an intentionally haunted- or hauntologically-informed research product that can be encounters in the c...more
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.
As part of this exercise you’ll practice developing paired devices and networked interactions with Particle.publish
Get oriented with output and feedback by working with an actuator. Taking cues from Google's Paper Signals experiment with materials to create an interesting notification or effect when combined wi...more
This practice exercise will ask 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 through...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
Imagine a world where IoT devices are haunted by supernatural beings; where specters, familiars, or gremlins are fundamental components of of smart devices. Realize a plausible but alternative IoT ...more
Manipulate a system or technical process to produce an outcome or effect that someone might struggle to explain.
Prepare a conceptual design and realize a working prototype of a IoT devices that will coordinate to meaningfully enhance social relationships.
As part of this exercise you’ll practice networked interactions with the Particle event model and create a simple set of paired devices in preparation for the final project.
