Today we have used Roel’s example code to be able to get started with creating different light patterns. We managed to test out some of the light patterns in the Point lights paper, and I think it was a good start.
The biggest challenge is translating what we have learned in the programming course using JavaScript to the Arduino IDE. I don’t have much pre-knowledge of using Arduino, so I guess it will be some struggle. To only have one LED light to work with feels like a good way to learn how to work with constraints and work with the material itself to see how interactions can be made in different ways and how small changes can affect the outcomes.
