Process:
Finally I decided on a simple version of the previous “rubik’s cube”:
In total, this design generates 8 small cotton balls tightly bonded to the metal frame in the middle. Ideally the balls should bulge outwards and I also plan on installing different colored lights inside the balls to create a lovely experience.
User: myself
Story/ Intention: I really wanted a night lamp that can be hold and played by hand, instead of as a house decor. I also wanted to make some with that has a structure but also interesting contrasts between the structure and its counterparts. So I decided to manipulate the material structure of rubik’s cube and create a handhold lamp.
Fabric:
I originally bought fabric from a shop for the anglerfish but decided to go for something different, so I ordered it from Amazon and looks like this
Hi Rida, nice work here! Your plan sounds fine but to use multiple colors is a bit advanced. You can do it! You just need some more variety in the resistors you use– you can find them in the left door of the VFL electronics cabinet. See in the example the circuit all the way on the right from the week 2 canvas/homework? it uses a different resistor for the blue led because it has a different forward voltage than the red ones. https://www.tinkercad.com/things/fwj573eA2ow
Hey Rida! I love this idea and I’m super excited about how this will all come together. The sketches were so cool too!!! I would’ve loved to see the angler fish but I’m obsessed with the Rubik’s cube idea. As per Becky’s comment I would just double check about how to manipulate all the colored lights.
Very good! But I’m not sure where the switch can be placed, I think you can use the bottom side of the cube as a place to put the switch, so this side can be used without the lamp!
Very cute!! This is looking like a big project! I also like to imitate! This should feel very good, very cool! But I didn’t feel very strong emotions, he seemed to lack a story. But! I’m still looking forward to it!
