Two designers at Phenomblue created this great MaKey-MaKey wind chimes project as an experiment in indeterminacy in music:

Using the MaKey MaKey invention kit, designers Tom F. and Sam W. built Russ Chimes, a wind-chime synthesizer. MaKey MaKey allows users to turn anything conductive—lemons, bananas, Play-Doh, etc.—into a controller. When a user touches the object, it closes a circuit. The computer recognizes this as a regular keyboard or mouse message and behaves accordingly.
Our designers took a set of everyday wind chimes, wired them to the keyboard's four directional keys and wrapped the central clapper with tinfoil to complete the circuit. Using Ableton Live and the Native Instruments Massive synthesizer, they synched the device to a huge library of samples triggered by the chimes striking the central clapper. The tempo is quantitized in Ableton, so it's always hitting a beat according to a set BPM. As the wind picks up, the chimes trigger more random samples and compose a song of unique, haunting sounds.

Me dispongo a hacer una buena explicación sobre el control de los motores brushles...
Tengo que decir que aunque hay información por ahí, para mí no fue nada concluyente a la hora de proseguir con mi proyecto.

Re: Is my Arduino broken? [serial port already in use problem]

Now I'm seriously thinking it's Ardu's fault :/

Fine. End your frustration. Just put the Arduino back in its box and forget about it.

It can't possibly tie up the PC end of the serial port, but, if you want to blame the Arduino, go ahead...

Hi,

I again bootloaded a fresh new chip with optiboot loader but still face this issue.

How can i set fuses on target ? Is there any setting for this ?

J'attends de les recevoir.

Tout comme la sonde, j'ai besoin d'une carte électronique toute petite ^^ J'ai donc opté pour l' ARDUINO MINI. ( Pour la programmer j'ai pris la carte USB ). Y'a t-il des choses ...

There are no result on C, but when I open the serial port monitor on arduino. The results appear on the C program.

Connecting two applications to the same serial port is a recipe for disaster. You didn't say that that was your goal.

Try change long previousMilli to unsigned long previousMilli, also 2 minutes is 120000 milliseconds

Or use another board to modify the PWM going to the KK. You can add an altimeter, compass, or GPS. This is much more fun than reinventing the wheel of the existing code on the board which costs $12.

Means taking input from the receiver...

Sebastian,

I had been trying to generate a 24MHz clock for an image sensor and this post got me there. Thank you. I had tried poking around with some code you had put up in a thread on timer interrupts (which seemed to me the most obvious solution) but...

Early Release Getting Started with Raspberry Pi Book Cyber Monday Discount

Posted: 26 Nov 2012 01:00 AM PST

We have received permission to share the secret (ahem!) Black Friday/Cyber Monday coupon code "DEAL" for those wishing to purchase the Early Release version of Matt Richardson & Shawn Wallace's work-in-progress Getting Started with Raspberry Pi book at a 50% discount today from O'Reilly/Make:

With Early Release ebooks, you get books in their earliest form — the author's raw and unedited content as he or she writes — so you can take advantage of these technologies long before the official release of these titles. You'll also receive updates when significant changes are made, new chapters as they're written, and the final ebook bundle.
The Raspberry Pi platform was developed to lower the barriers to teaching young people programming, and it is also popular with hardware hackers and hobbyists who may have a project that needs more computing power than a microcontroller.
The first section of the book gets you up and running; after the first chapter the reader will have installed the operating system, will have an understanding of all the hardware features of the Pi, and will have set up the small computer with the correct power source and peripherals. This is followed by a quick start user guide, with enough context and examples of commands to get around the computer.
The book also provides instructions for getting started with programming in Scratch and Python, and examples of using the general purpose input and output interface. Finally, the reader is guided through two hands on hardware hacking projects.

Read more.
Adafruit will probably consider offering the final book when it is ultimately printed, but for now it is nice to follow along while the book is woven together by these two talented tech writers! Check out the "Books" category in our store for other books on Raspberry Pi and other topics!
