We nicely arrived in Yogyakarta for cellsbutton#04, international media art festival, and already started a first diy makeaway in front of the HONF office. I planned to do the BitBadge, DIY reflow soldering, but sadly i produced the PCBs scaled down a little bit and the mask for the screen-printing doesnt fit. noooooooo….
But anyway, we still tried and soldered the LEDs by hand, one-by-one, and Dhomas Kampret was really doing a great job on his 2 color BitBadge (yes it does allow mixing).
We also tried the reflow soldering later, we first painted the solder paste onto the desired pads, placed the LEDs and then cooked the stuff on a little gas stove. works niiiiiiiice!
thanks to xname, who made some micronoise during the piksel festival, more people could hear the great soundz of it during a otolab competition in italy. and they even won first prize at the Italian competition for electronic drums hacking it with lights!!
Die SGMK hat wieder mal einen Workshop an den Dynamic Days im Dynamo durchgeführt. Während einer Woche löten und spielen die Jugendlichen mit Lasern und kriegen erste Erfahrungen mit elektronischen Spielereien. Dieses Jahr zum ersten Mal konnten sie eine Lasershow bauen, an dem sie sogar ihre MP3-Player anschliessen können und über den Sound ihre Laser-Visuals beeinflussen.
