untitled circuits #1

“untitled circuits” is a series of experimental circuits based on paper and other materials. I’m working on this project with Catarina Mota (openmaterials.org), and this will be our final project for the course “O Som do Pensamento” #1 is a copper wire circuit on a paper support that generates sound in real time based on [...]

AltLab opening with paper arduinos

I’m happy to introduce the paperduino :D This Tuesday AltLab had its first public session and we did a mini workshop on “paperduinos”, a new generation of cardboard arduinos. We had lots of fun and have many more ideas we’d like to try: different layouts, colored papers, and other materials. More info soon at AltLab.
