Example

I don't know if other people have seen this or not but I thought some of you might find it amusing. A friend sent me this link.

I'm not sure what component's the guy was using but it's a neat example of something that can be done as a wearable, interactive piece.

Even More Resources

Thanks for the post, Diane! I'll add your links to the sidebar (over there --> )

I've also got some more stuff for you guys,

For those interested in delving deeper into electronics, you can learn the basics (and "advanceds") of electronic circuitry at allaboutcircuits.com/ I think they make it pretty easy to understand.

Center for New Media and Audio Technologies - Berkeley - Berkeley's online searchable resources for all kinds of technology (relating primarily to audio). May be useful for people.

Some things to look for/consider: using different kinds of materials to create sensors, circuits, switches, etc.

Another thing to look into: Muscle Wire (this is the stuff they used to make those dresses contract

Let's Get This Party Started

Hello shiny happy peoples,

I'm going to kick off this blog with a few resources. If you haven't already, you should check out the arduino homepage here:

http://arduino.cc/

Check out the Pure Data homepage here:

puredata.info

I'll be adding some more resources just as soon as I can remember what they are!

Have a good one y'all.
