The beautiful Philips record player we are working with.

It’s week 2 of Physical computing and after the extremely fast pace of last week, I cant believe we have a week to make one thing. I’m working with Ishac, Nathalia and Benoit this time.
The brief is to take an (electronic) object and completely alter the way we interact with it. We’ve been toying with 2 key conceptual spaces.. 1. reinventing old nostalgic objects (objects that you would bury as Dennis Paul would say..) & 2. playing with the classic behaviours we have when our devices malfunction, for example hitting the top of the TV, shaking a remote violently or yelling/pleading with the computer.

Update: Nathalia found a gorgeous Philips turntable/record player and that has turned into the center of this week’s project. The moment the four of us set eyes on it, we knew we had to work with it. We sort of have a plan. It’s ambitious. Let’s see how things go…
This is a game of tug of war created by Sebastian Rønde Thielke and I as a quick 1 day project using arduino, sensors and actuators. The goal was to have 2 arduinos talk to each other where one was the input device and the other the output device.
A lot of fun and mildly addictive.
