John Morgan told me about this. Sounds great, reminds me of my senior thesis at Auburn. http://thesa.me

If you’re still in NYC, would love to talk to you more about this.

Comment on Physical Computing Lab 1 by Thomas Robertson

Judane,

It’s not a toggle switch, just a simple single-throw, single-pole switch (boring old normal switch). Actually, looking back, I can see that the diagram I provided is actually somewhat confusing because of how I placed the switch box. I’m going to try to re-draw that part of the circuit with text, so bear with me.

When the switch is open, you have a circuit that connects the 5V to nothing, so it goes nowhere, and you have a second circuit that connects the digital input to ground. When the digital input is grounded, it doesn’t detect any input and counts as “off” (well, this depends on your code, actually, but in most cases this is how you do it). When you close the switch, you create a three-point circuit. You have a 5V power connected to two things: first a big resistor and then ground, and second the digital input (which is also a ground). So the 5V has to decide where it’s going to go. The big resistor basically acts as a dam, blocking the power and pushing it into another path if available. Since there is a digital input available, the power goes there instead of straight to ground.

Hope that makes sense.

Thomas

This is really good, could you explain a little more in detail from a breadboard stand point. i’m trying to figure out how the two seperate curcuits work. and are you using a toggle switch?

Comment on Why does “live” matter so much? by Shawn

Shawn — Thu, 08 Oct 2009 16:10:56 +0000

Do you think the compelling tools will be built? Where do we go from here? Is Live better suited to the illusion of immediacy that can be created by just allowing the audience some interaction with each-other?
