Module 1

Activity 1 is about learning about circuits, while activity 2 focuses more about what you find in your environment.

Activity 1

Here I made a simple circuit, without adding the batter it will not glow. Here is a simple circuit glowing red close up. Here is a simple circuit glowing red. Here I try to draw a diagram for my next circuit. Here I add the copper tape and battery, but it won't work without a switch or light. Here I add the switch which is a piece of copper taped to the side of the paper so that it controls when the light will turn on. The circuit was completed and the light was working, but the second one was not, this was because the light was facing the wrong way comapred to the blue one. Here I try again not realizing the cause of why the second light is not glowing. Here is a sketch of me trying another circuit idea. Here is a sketch of me trying another circuit idea. Here is a sketch of me trying another circuit idea. Here I add the copper tape onto my sketch. Here I add the copper tape onto my sketch. Here I add the copper tape onto my sketch. This time I put the lights facing the same way. Because I fixed the direction of the lights this time both lit up. I add the magnet and the light to the circle circut, I was a bit worried my copper tape would be too weak, but I taped it well. It worked! The blue light lit the brightest. Close up of the circuit! I try to light up this circuit but I do realize my mistake with the copper tape and lights, so it does not glow. Because the previous circuit didn't work I try to impliment the second light to the circle shaped circuit, it worked! This time I try and see if a third light worked. At first it seemed difficult but it ended up working! A close up of the 3 circle circuit! I tried making art out of the circuit, it worked but the light died before I could take a picture. I tried making another drawing out of the circuit this time as hoop earrings, it worked as well. Probably my favorite part of this activity!

Activity 2

A plastic retainer case that opens and closes using a snap latch, suggesting a pressing interaction. A keychain featuring a hinged locket that invites an opening and closing gesture. A round door knob that affords twisting to open or close a door. A reusable water bottle with a screw-top lid that suggests rotational movement. An open and shut movement as well for actually opening my water bottle. A wired gaming mouse designed for repetitive clicking and scrolling interactions. How I imagine using the copper tape, battery and lights would be! How I imagine using the copper tape, battery and lights would be! How I imagine using the copper tape, battery and lights would be! How I imagine using the copper tape, battery and lights would be! How I imagine using the copper tape, battery and lights would be! A hinged locket shown open, emphasizing the interior space revealed through movement. A hand wearing rings, highlighting rotational and tactile interaction with wearable objects. A pair of glasses that afford lifting, adjusting, and repositioning on the face. A soft plush keychain hanging from a surface, suggesting touch and movement. A zipper of my abaya, showing a sliding motion. An open laptop whose lid movement and keyboard afford typing and tapping interactions. A portable CD player with buttons and a hinged lid that suggest pressing and opening. A pen placed on a surface, inviting gripping and writing movement. A wall-mounted light switch that suggests flipping up or down to control light. Horizontal blinds with a pull cord that afford pulling and adjusting light levels. A second view of the sliding closet doors emphasizing horizontal movement. A set of drawers with handles that afford pulling outward to access storage. Early formstorming sketches exploring LED placement on hijabs. Concept sketches visualizing different object-based LED circuit possibilities. Annotated sketches experimenting with wearable and clothing-based light interactions.

Project 1

Final Project 1 Design

Wearable Interactive Affordance Based Circuit

LION MASK: a mask that can light up near the eye-holes when pressed on the face, or squeezed by hands.

Me trying on the lion mask, it works and flickers.<a href='https://youtube.com/shorts/IeTmZnyeoOw?feature=share' target='_blank'><p>Project Video Link</p></a>

Non-Wearable Interactive Affordance Based Circuit

RETAINER CASE: a case that have a light turn on when closed.

Me opening my reatiner case causing the light to turn off My grandpa is holding it for me as I demonstrate.<a href='https://youtube.com/shorts/Ff9MJ7mz5sU?feature=share' target='_blank'><p>Project Video Link</p></a>
