Paper Computing + Straws!

Posted: November 8th, 2009 | Author: danny | Filed under: Uncategorized | 1 Comment »

So this week I teamed up with Jenn Casper and Rita Chen to build something using paper computing (teardrop) from the High Low Tech Group at the media lab.

It was pretty fun, but a little harder than we thought it would be. It also took quite a bit longer than we envisioned.

• The paint needs to dry before it conducts well, or at all.
• Super glue is sticky!
• For some reason our graphite switch on a straw didn't quite work.

Here's a video of our completed piece:
