Description
Light Up Your Art! w/Michael Pierce
Introducing a Smart Art Series at the Curious Forge, connecting Artists with technology to inspire and expand technology options in your art.
This presentation will cover simple plug-and-play modules for controlling LED lights and strips and a brief overview of Off-the-shelf Plugins, Pattern Controllers, Remote Control, and Phone Controllers
This presentation will also introduce a new 4-session series for more in-depth control and interactivity of your art projects using the “Circuit Express” Arduino based experimenters card.
Each new session will delve into different sensors, graphical programming, and soldering skills and end with a personally designed art project using skills developed in the previous sessions. If you have ever wanted to look “under the hood” or wanted more interactivity in your art projects, this is the course for you!
No programming or electronics experience needed
This Presentation is a brief overview of the next four Smart Art Electronic Art Classes at The Curious Forge with Michael Pierce. This series will span simple programming to in-depth activity using various sensors and components to light up your art!
