Memorial for Catherine

This piece is in progress. It is an interactive installation which will also have an audio recording (narrative) triggered by the same sensor that triggers the lights. The first person narrative will reveal the life and death of Catherine, a sex worker murdered in 2003.

This series will be an ongoing memorial for sex workers who have been victims of violence.

The first draft will be completed on December 17th, 2009 to coincide with the International Day to End Violence Against Sex Workers.

In Week 2 of Physical Computing, I learned how to use a potentiometer!

Assignment:

In this lab, you’ll learn how to connect a variable resistor to a microcontroller and read it as an analog input. You’ll be able to read changing conditions from the physical world and convert them to changing variables in a program.

Work:

This will be the section I post my work for PComp (Introduction to Physical Computing) at ITP.
