Henning: Carbon Copy

A package wrapped in white paper wrapped in carbon copy paper.


Henning: Brightness

A package with a photoresistor on top connected to an Arduino Duemilanove and a power supply. The value of the photoresistor is something between 0 .. 255 (1 byte). Data is saved to the EEPROM (1 kB). This results in 17 minutes of logging. The output was created with Processing.


Xinglang: Colored Tracks

A sparkle-shape-paper-ball integrated with colored pencils, which is connected to the lid of the box with a elastic. I took it on a bus, it tracks the movement of bus on all sides inside the box.


Michaela: Tracking à la Knowles

I prepared a package with paper, metal wires, key rings & markers. I asked a friend to take it with her via car from Jena to Berlin & to send it back to me. The follwowing pics prove the procedure & show the results after I've received the package from the postman.


Michaela: Recording à la Kasperavicius

My second experiment consists of two white cards, which were shrouded in carbon copy paper & inserted in an envelope. I sent the letter from Jena to Magdeburg & got it back again. I scaned the results & tried to analyze the pixels with processing, as you can see on the pics below.
