Using Sphero with Shapesynth is really quite addictive. Video coming soon, but probably to Palm Sounds first.

Yeah, you know, just your regular geeking out with stuff.
The Sphero is on the go
I’m really intrigued by the idea of physical objects interacting with the real world, which is why I decided to get a Sphero ball. It’s a very interesting device, and there are a few apps that work with it, including especially Shapesynth, which makes some amazing sounds.
So I’m just getting started now on this, and starting to think about how I can use Sphero in a variety of different settings.
iPad + Paul’s Shruthi-1
I posted this over at Palm Sounds, but it’s a good picture of Genome running on the iPad and controlling Paul’s Shruthi-1. So it goes here too.
Thinking about what to do with Sugru
I’d heard of this stuff before, but I’d never used it. I got this sample from the lovely people at Technology Will Save Us when I went to their talk the other day. The sugru web site has some really good examples of how people have used the stuff.
So the only question remaining is, what should I use it for?
Now I’ve got another Lumiphone kit
I’ve made one of these before, but I got given another kit at the talk I went to given by Technology Will Save Us. So I guess I’ll make this one and then maybe have a little lumiphone ensemble!
Binary Clock in LiveView
A little bit of progress with this project. I got the binary clock app running on the device. I really need to be able to get this working with RSS feeds and more soon.
Zodiac is up and running!
I finally managed to get a charger for my Zodiac 2, and it works just fine! I’ve had a very brief try out with the onboard sound card and that too works just fine. I’m looking forward to getting it fully loaded.
Romo has arrived!
Yay! My Romo has arrived at last! I’m looking forward to building it and getting it running.
3G gave up
I don’t know if you can see it but just overlapping the Apple logo is that spinning thing that tells you that it’s doing something, or in this case, doing something for about 2 days. My jailbroken 3G finally broke and I had to wipe it to get it to do anything serious at all. Will I go back to a jailbroken 3G? Maybe, I’m not sure as yet quite what I want to do with the thing.
VL-1 Arrived
I had a VL-1 when they first came out, but I got rid of them. I wish I hadn’t. So I’ve finally got around to getting a new one, or rather a second hand one that is. It’s a little grubby but I think it’ll be quite easy to get cleaned up. Once that’s done, my plan is to MIDIfy it. I’ll let you know how that goes.
