“Melding experiment”

“Melding experiment” is a experiment testing through combine the embroidery and technology together

I worked with a programmar in the first “melding experiment”, used a piece of ready-made Chinese embroidery to be the sample of this intervention.

We have a discussion before this experiment, we talked about what sensors can be added in and why used these kind of sensors.

Tools:

• Mp3 player
• Arduino Uno
• MPR121 touch sensor board
• Conductive fiber line
• speaker(4 ohm 3 watt)

The reason why we use touch sensor + sound is to hope that participants can touch the Chinese embroidery to feel the emotion behind the embroidery（Embroidery art work has always been looked up by the audience, we hope it can be closer to people）, andtouch the surface of the piece, such as touching a crane, it will stimulate the sound of the crane, and touching flowers and grass can make the sound of forest appear, thereby creating an emotional connection between the embroidery artworks with audience by technology.

On Thursday I’ll be organizing an expert meeting with this demo to get feedback and set the direction for my project.
