Urbbi has a voice! Although a slightly generic boring voice for now but I’m working on his pronunciation!

As described in my earlier weeknotes Urbbi is currently reading the light levels and moisture in the workshop at CIID. I think the light being so erratic is due to the crazy building going on from the class of CIID 2011 in the workshop at the moment! Or some kind of calibration issue, I’ll look into that later.

For now heres, the light levels.

And the data for Moisture.

Update on the weeks work in the workshop. I got Urbbi winking a little hello. I guess he need’s another eye before he looks like a pirate!

Thought I’d throw up a quick slideshow of last weeks user testing. I must say it was very useful and I look forward to developing the concept further. More details are coming in the form of my late weeknotes! Look out for that soon.

Never in my life have I had hot glue burns and brown fingers from soil until this project!

An update from the workshop here at CIID. I’m currently putting the finishing touches on the first round of prototypes. I have an experience prototyping session arranged for Saturday morning and so I have decided to postpone my usual weeknotes until Saturday/Sunday evening to make full use of the session. (And have something more to write about other than how hard it is to laser cut Coca-Cola bottle caps… ask me about it sometime!).

A Week in Making is a short film documenting the “goings-on” around the Copenhagen Institute of Interaction Design during the Physical Prototyping module taught by Massimo Banzi and David Mellis (both of Arduino fame).

The film gives a brief glimpse at some of the daily projects and people on this years Interaction Design Programme.

Thanks to Massimo Banzi, David Mellis and David Gaultier for running the 2 week workshop!

Shot and edited by me, Mac Oosthuizen.

Credit to Ergo Phizmiz & Margita Zalite for the music!
