Next week I’ll be participating in 4in4 by completing four projects in four days. Here are the projects I’ll be working on:
- Data Scentualization– Hacking an array of electric air fresheners to work with Arduino, based on an article from Make. I have loose plans to trigger them with some sort of information event (e.g. tying them to an rss feed), but I’m not sure what that will be yet.
- Paper Circuits– Kate Hartman and I will be embedding circuits in handmade paper and playing with conductive paints.
- Lunch– On Thursday I’ll be participating from home as I cook as much food as I can to freeze for lunches to last me through the upcoming semester. I’m planning on an assortment of tamales, empanadas, etc.
- Tube:Sock– A couple of years ago my mom gave me 12 pairs of brightly colored cashmere socks for Christmas (Thanks, Mom!), but now I’ve worn through all of the toes and heels. Instead of throwing away all of these lovely socks, I’m going to cut off the feet and sew the remaing parts into a long tube.
