SUGGESTED INTERPRETATION:
Use code to make something that glows (lights up, illuminates)
This is intended to be a hardware project, using Arduino and the LEDs and RGB LEDs in your kit. If you need more LEDs, let us know! We also have a limited number of RGB LED matrices. Can you use p5.js? Yes, but also light up a least one LED!
EXAMPLES:
Line Wobbler by Robin Baumgarten
Larger scale works:
Leo Villareal - notably The Bay Lights, Point Cloud
Chasing Stars in Shadow, Joon Moon
CODE: Upload your code file (and anything else we'll need access to) to the course Google Drive (make a folder labeled your name). You could also use a public GitHub repository or public website. Regardless, make sure we have access to it!
Nicely Documented Code Tips:
add // comments
give clear and intentional names to your variables, functions, file, etc.,
strive for clear and consistent indentation and spacing
Are you able to tell what each section of your code does, if asked? Will future you be able to tell what this code does if you open the file back up again in 5 years?
REPORT: Compile your documentation. You can copy this Documentation Template, or make your own from scratch. Just, again, make sure we have access to view it, e.g., by putting it in the course Google Drive.
Fill with your images, video, text, and links! Don’t forget to link your code and add process pics!
POST: Click the pencil icon in the bottom right ↘ to edit the project page.
Copy the example post below.
Replace the images/video with at least 1 "hero" image and/or video of your own.
AGAIN. Make sure that we will have access to your assets. (Use the course Google Drive!)
Replace the text and links with your links. Test them! (People often forget to actually change the links on this page... awkward...)
If you’re having trouble just let shm know. they are so happy to help!! ;)
We grade your work by scrolling through this gallery and viewing each of the pieces linked on this page. So if it's not here, we can't grade it!

Code Link (github repo, or a link to your code file in your google drive folder.)
Final Video (put it in your google drive folder, or upload to YouTube - just make sure we have access.)
