| | ==Digital wind chime== |
|
| |
|
| '''Wind chime - music instrument'''
| | An analog wind chime consists of small pipes (for example made out of wood or metal) that are moved by the wind. When they collide sounds are produced. |
| | I created a digital wind chime with the program Max MSP and an Arduino. The arduino is equipped with a light sensor and is connected to the computer that runs max msp. The arduino does not sense wind, but light. Therefore, the wind has to be translated into light. That happens for example when the sun is shining and light falls through the leaves of a bush or tree. The digital wind chime has to be placed under said tree/bush. It can be started with a button in the max msp program. |
|
| |
|
| Technical setup: One to three light sensors and the arduino are attached to the max msp program. Different serial numbers output different sounds. This means that the different shades of shadows are connected to sounds. A lighter shadow outouts a different sound as a really dark shadow. Ergo, the shadows make music and create melodies.
| | The digital wind chime consists of two parts: one fundamental tone that is played by the drunk object of max msp and is running all the time. The second part is depending on the data, that the arduino gathers through the light sensor. Different shades create different tones in max msp. |
| Example: the prootype is put under a tree, when the wind goes through the tree a lot of different shadows fall onto the light sensors, this turns the wind into sound, similiar to an analog wind chime

|
| | The arduino can be put into a box, so the wind chime resembles a music box rather than an electric setup. |

| Problems / Questions:
| |
|
| |
| When i try to connect the scale to the slider the led pin and the built in led starts blinking fast and i can't control the led pin with the light sensor
| |
|
| |
| I guess something is either not connected or converted in Max correctly
| |
| Maybe outputting directly from arduino serial monitor (you find it under tools in arduino software)
| |
| could give a hint. Or perhaps Max console/message could give an idea
| |
|
| |
| What is the meaning of the select numbers "13, 10, 50, 51"?
| |
|
| |
| "13" stands for the beginning of the line and "10" stands for the new line.
| |
| Usually, they are both used at the same time to define the beginning and the new line: more here
| |
| https://www.arduino.cc/reference/tr/language/functions/communication/serial/println/
| |
|
| |
| And the three numbers in between (50, 51 and should be one more)
| |
| stand for ascii code to define a real integer number

| Following Max through the light
| |
| The participant enters a room with closed up eyes. To the participant there is a light sensor attached. The sensor triggers sound and/or visuals (e.g. processing). The participant walks through the room, hearing different sounds without seeing the light which cause the sounds. There could be a maze which the participant has to follow in order to reach a certain part of the room, only following certain sounds and not leaving the path that Max shows. If possible, the participant can see the way they made through the room in visuals (colors etc.) at the end on the screen. The participant experiences their way through the room through visuals at the end and through sound while they are walking, without ever seeing the path they walk, only experiencing it through Max
