Week 2: pic programming
Assignment: Observation Project - began project with Josh, Jury, and Anh. We chose to observe CBGB, but it changed along the way. See more here (link to group page).
Assignment: First PIC program. Currently, my program sucks. It needs to be debugged, and the structure seems bad. Need to really go over the documentation for PIC BASIC, but the documentation isn't very good. So right now, all it does is change the states of the lights. Eh. See the code.
Assignment: I attended the shop safety class.
Play: working on a game inspired by Myst, and some interactive physical pieces by John Maeda.
Week 1: electronics
Assignment: I got my board up and running! I had a switch connected, then a variable resistor, then both in series so you had to use them together. That counts, but it's kinda boring, so I'm working on something better.
Play: Nothing yet. Had a lot of trouble getting parts and getting everything hooked up correctly.
