Random
music generator - design by Joe Paradiso. An exercise in electronics. It produced
quite wonderful soundpatterns
Stepper
motor control test using assembly programming
3
axis milling using the modella machine - a table top milling machine capable
of milling pieces of about 6x4x2 inches in foam, wood or aluminum
final
project with Kyle steinfeld
A piston controlled reconfigurable surface with numerical control through a
PIC chip.
Various iterations of piston designs were explored as well as different tests
for rubber cast surfaces to carry the cast piece. Fully mechanical functional
prototyp was presented.
The
exercise was to introduce the PIC chip and the tower development environment.
In a group project with David Merril we used electronic drivers for solenoids
to create a virtual sensing surface. As one slides the solenoids across the
the case their position gets mapped to a height array and the drivers activate
the corresponding solenoids
Lasercutter
and water jet cutter exercise. I used a surface puzzle joint system developed
in Spring1999 in 4.207 .
The goal here was to get a better understanding for tolerances
and material behavior forced into double curvature. Materials explored were
aluminum, chipboard and polycarbon
A
sketch for a physical spline modeler motor controlled. The idea is based on
an earlier programmed spline surface that is controlled through in and outcoming
slope. Devices were 3dprinted to numerically control a physical spline using
polar coordinate system positioning

The
swing - assignment one called for picking a problem from thinkcycle
org
I chose the problem to stop a material transport swing from swinging back by
designing a mechanism that allows the swing to stop at any point without fixation.
