This is a homework experiment in which the goal was to show time passing using LEDs. Through use of several loops in arduino I was able to create this piece. The basic premise of this is that the red LEDs represent 1 second each, the blue LEDs represent 5 seconds, and the green LEDs represent 20 seconds. Once the clock hits 60 seconds, it blinks rapidly then begins again.

Computation
As a second semester Major Studio in the four semester MFA program, Computation gives students experience prototyping embedded computing applications, objects, and experiences. This class focuses on building and refining prototypes based on concepts outlined by instructor, but created and imagined by students. It will also focus on ubiquitous computing, product and experience design, documentation/presentation skills, entrepreneurship, and tend-spotting.
Expressing Time with Arduino/LEDs
LEDs w/Arduino…
First simple experiment programming Arduino directly rather than through Firmata/openFrameworks. Cycling through an array of LEDs in a row.
