Module 3

In this module, I explore connecting physical touch with a P5.js digital visualization to create one unified and integrated design.

Activity 1

At first I played around with each sketch.js page to introduce myself to the concepts of the code before I started experimenting with it.

I experimented with the sketch.js page.

This is the code for the sketch.js page. I played around with the size and colours of the rectangle.

I experimented with the sketch1.js page.

This is the code for the sketch1.js page. I played around with the size of the circle and the colours.

I experimented with the sketch2.js page.

This is the code for the sketch2.js page. I played around with the size of the torus. I altered other things within the code but I'm unsure what impact that had.

I experimented with the sketch3.js page.

This is the code for the sketch3.js page. I played around with the size of the torus and the plane underneath it. I altered other things within the code but I'm unsure what impact that had.

I experimented with the sketch4.js page.

I experimented with the sketch5.js page.

This is the code for the sketch5.js page. I played around with some values in the code but I'm unsure what impact that had.

I experimented with the sketch6.js page.

This is the code for the sketch6.js page. I played around with the size of the circle. I altered other things within the code but I'm unsure what impact that had.

I experimented further with the sketch.js page.

This is the code for the sketch.js page. I continued to play around with the size and colours of the rectangle.

I experimented further with the sketch1.js page.

Activity 2

I explored using rings as buttons. All rings were conductive. One ring is sterling silver, one is either stainless steel, and two are copper.

I tested this water bottle. I was curious if the orange coating would be conductive. It was not

I was curious if the little parts of the knife that are circled were conductive. They were.

I tested a coin.

I tested a mechanical pencil but it didn't have enough graphite to work.

This paper clip didn't work due to the coating on it.

This bottle caps surprisingly didn't work.

I was curious to see if the prongs on plug would work. It did.

I experimented with using the action of turning a page as a button.

I experimented with using a figurine as a sort of game piece.

I experimented with creating a one-handed controller.

I experimented with using the act of flipping a coin. I wanted the digital response to be different depending on if the coin landed on heads or tails. Due to the coin being conductive, it did not work out.

I experimented with using the act of opening and closing something as a button.

I experimented with creating one of those ball in a maze toys. I wanted to figure out how to make the ball responsive to moving on the track. It was successful.

I experimented further with creating a one-handed controller.

I was curious to see if connecting the earring someone was wearing would make them conductive. It did.

I used another person as a button.

I experimented with creating a kind of whack-a-mole game.

I experimented with using water as a button.

These magnets were surprisingly not conductive.

I experimented with using mason jars as a buttons. The different components of the lid made it complicated and I wasn't successful.

I experimented with using salt as a button. It didn't work because of the different particles.

I experimented with using a cat as a button. I used an aluminium pad to connect the cat because I wouldn't just clip him. His fur was too thick for it to work but booping his nose was successful.

I experimented with creating a button using the action of placing and picking up a pot.

Project 3

Final Project 3 Design

For my final design, I created a physical joystick to control a digital alien as he flies around space in his spaceship dodging space rocks and trying to get back to his home planet.
