Notes from Nancy Paterson

Microcosm- must work on scale to reason metaphorically. It's what artists do
Transduction
Transducers include Sensors
Aristotelian logic vs. Platonic logic
Feinmann diagrams- I'm Richard Feinmann ( why the 85 shuttle blew up, reason metaphorically creative physicist VW Bus)
Northrop Frye- what you think but how you think it- Prof- Descartes origins of self-consciousness
Think about sensor work about making something in a microcosm that works on a higher level. Models, not finished projects. Work your way up. Not necessarily in a straight line
Arduino microprocessors- photocells
Make lights flash- photocell input, audio output, felt like you were standing in the room of 500 ppl
Life expectancy of photocell- short
Vary playback- 12inch laserdisc for half hour long video. Player $4000
measure speed on a rear wheel, shiny pulses, one small light sensor on chain guard wired to controller. -Bicycle TV Turn steering contact switch mounted on the bike
Jewelry, accessory, include sensors, photocells, necklace, belt buckle, pei- zipper pull
