Working with a Micro Controller using Arduino
Details
Diorama-rama preview – help build a cityscape that uses microcontrollers and LEDs to blink a 140 character messages. A great opportunity to finally start learning the basic skills you need to get that physical/ arduino project off the ground. Program an attiny85 microcontroller - excellent for beginners. Bring an Arduino UNO R3, USB cable and a laptop.
Christopher Lewis did an Arduino workshop with Indesology last year. You might remember as the Toronto-based creative technologist, photographer and creative coder. He explores the potential of technology through digital installations and as a member of the technology/art collective The Creative Technologists of Toronto. Christopher believes that the DIY community is essential to driving the development of essential mainstream technologies by making interactive hardware inexpensive and ubiquitous. His goal is to create approachable technology that is fun to use.
