Kinetic Energy - the Kinetic Energy Project - Turning Muscle Power into Usable Electricity

It was time to build something that would turn muscle power into usable electricity. To power the lights, we would force a dc gear motor to turn and tap into the electricty it generates. We would make a wheel attached to the end of a rod, and lights attached around the wheel.

My first schematic and board design in Eagle

The Indecision Space

With Tong Wu as my collaborator, we created the Indecision Space, an electronic tool that ritualizes the experience of being undecided then making a choice.

Kinetic Energy - the Kinetic Energy Project - Concepts and Brainstorming

For our for the Energy class, I partnered up with Arnav. We came up with a few concepts for how to turn human motion into light.

Presence - Fabricating the Kinetic Sculpture

After prototyping fabricating a prototype of Presence to test the design and physical mechanics, it was time to build the real thing.
