The vegetable synthesizer Subject description: using an arduino and max/msp |
|

This was a project I did for artschool last year. The objective was to make an interactive sculpture to produce sound, light or movement.
Video with 2 people "playing" it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lW4Z78tZlA4
And a little montage of the previous clip:

The pins in the bowl feed directly into the arduino wich calculates the resistence of the vegetable/fruit and sends a message to max/msp. Max/msp converts the message in a frequency for the 6 sine wave oscilators and plays the output through a pretty heavy subwoofer.... _________________ There he goes. One of God's own prototypes.

That vid. (with it's editing) was VERY cool!
Great project as well! What had the participants thought of it? Stumped? Not knowing what to do? Fascinated? I doubt many of them (who were actually THERE, in the first place) were bored with it. |

Thanks! It's cool that people here appreciate stuff like this. In artschool most people know nothing of electronics and it can get a little demotivating.
I presented it at a open school day where new people mostly come with their parents to see if this school is right for them. Most people were scared at first but when they started they couldn't stop . 2 young kids were really fascinated wich was cool to see.

didn't even see the guy in the bushes at first, that is a surreal picture! _________________ There he goes. One of God's own prototypes. A high-powered mutant of some kind never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die.
