TASK 1 (Yes I changed red into green) TASK 2: (⬆️I really think this strip looks like Thanos’s glove.) TASK 4:   import processing.sound.*; SoundFile sample; Amplitude analysis; void setup() {   size(640, 480);     // load and play a sound file in a loop   sample = new SoundFile(this, “夏日入侵企画 – 🎇.mp3”);   sample.loop();   // create the Amplitude analysis object   analysis = new … Continue reading Recitation 7: Neopixel Music Visualization

The computer orchestra created by Simon de Diesbach, Jonas Lacôte, and Laura Perrenoud really impressed me. In this work, the computers are used as singers, while the real singers are people from around the world. Some of the “audiences” actually became the artist and created a part of the artifacts, and the other part of … Continue reading Final Project: Preparatory Research and Analysis

My poster is as bellow: And the code is: //bounce int rad = 365; // Width of the shape float xpos, ypos; float xpos2, ypos2;// Starting position of shape float xspeed =5; // Speed of the shape float yspeed =8; // Speed of the shape int xdirection = 1; // Left or Right int ydirection … Continue reading Recitation 6: Animating an Interactive Poster

I chose this image because it used to be my WeChat profile picture for a very long time after the pandemic. As it depicts the “green passcode”, I also hope it can bring good luck (never be locked in somewhere) to all of us.  I wanted to draw it with the shape function, both regular … Continue reading Recitation 5: Processing Basics

  Day, Night, Dance! – Amelia Shao – Margaret Minsky In previous classes, we saw a lot of interactive projects, and then I defined interaction is that users can do something to change the statement of the project and receive a message of the change. I don’t think the little house was made before, but … Continue reading Midterm Project: Individual Report

Our Work This time, Amber and I became partners. We firstly divided the work into two parts: circuit and cardboard. I began to build up the circuit while I was so confused with the super complicated instructions. In order not to make a mistake, I had to use completely the same color and plug in … Continue reading Recitation 4: Actuators and Mechanisms

Our goal is to illustrate how young people’s emotions change throughout the day and night while also illustrating the idea that we can always be positive and dance whenever we want. The background, the music, and the small man in front of the house may all be changed by covering the roof of the house … Continue reading Day, Night, Dance!-Amelia Shao-Margaret Minsky

  I’m so glad to be a member of the team MEMOPAL! and work with my teammates to realize the initial idea.   Design The idea came from the third story The Plague. When I was reading the novel, I was inspired by the white/red sign in front of each house. I thought that can … Continue reading Group Research Project: Make, Perform& Report

It never occurred to me that a tilt switch can be used to count bicep curls. Although I’m not a fitness fanatic, it’s still really interesting to make this circuit. It’s so sad that my partner Amber Zhu and I were busy adjusting the circuit and code, so we didn’t put it into actual use. … Continue reading Recitation 3: Workout

To be honest, recitation 2 is much easier than recitation 1, partly because I was more familiar with the breadboard and partly because the demands were more detailed so that it was easier to follow. I did spend a few minutes to make clear which two ports can make it right. It was so confusing … Continue reading Recitation 2: Arduino Basics
