Ideation

Idea 1: Garden Accessory
My ideas are based around either a solar or wind activated hanging garden accessory.

I like the idea of a Mandala Wind Spinner but I know that those are usually made out of a thin metal which allows the parts to spin and am unsure if I’d get the same affect with an acrylic material.


Idea 2: Table Centerpiece – Continuing from Allan’s project
After reading blog posts from classmates I got really interested in making an artifact from my project in that class. Part of my project was centered aroudn timed dinners, so this project would be a plate or table centerpiece that glows on a timer to highlight the timeline of the meal: countdown to meal -> subtle pulse during duration of meal -> finale when the course ends. If not a plate i’d be interested in it taking the form of a vase or sculpture.

Materials
Polyurethane Foam
Joint Compound
Reindeer Moss
Neopixel Button
Gemma M0
Small Glass Tube/Vase

Tools
Sandpaper
Belt Sander
Bandsaw
Handsaw
Soldering Iron


I need to write code for a light that works on a timer -> the functionality will be altered to work in my house and instead of being timed by course, it will be timed to inspire better eating habits-> so the light turns on at the start of dinner-eating period and maybe does a slight pulse until the end of the dinner-eating period. So in total the light in my house would be activated between 7-10pm.
