Prototyping Practice
October 2021
- In October 2021, I started using Arduino for the first time, during a workshop with Dennis de Bel. During a workshop, we started with a very basic unoficial arduino kit, a led, a motor, and a sensor. After making a few connections, we got to understand a bit how it works. It was from that point that I started getting more and more familiar with Arduino and work with ultrasonic sensors.
November 2021
- During the month of November, I started working with multiple sensors at the same time in order to map the position of an obstacle on a wider detection range.
December 2021
- In December, after being a lot more confortable with Arduino, I investigated the possibilty to transmit the values detected by the sensors and Arduino to P5.js, by making a serial communication (with P5.serialcontrol). By doing so, I could gain more freedom in terms of visual/sound feedbacks. However, the serial communication between Arduino and P5.js was in stand by for a very long time, because I didn't know (yet) how to send the values of more than one sensor.
- During the Window exhibition at Buitenboel, I created micro-installation composed of a LCD screen and sensor(s) inviting users/visitors to change the color of the screen and displayed messages by getting closer from the window.
February 2022
- In February, we created a small hybrid reality quest with Louisa. For this occasion, I created a mini-game with a sensor setup, allowing players to unlock a secret password by taking the good positions in space.
March 2022
- In March 2022, I started designing differents stages/steps for the installation. The installation requires once again the player to hold on on specific position in order to unlock new stages.
April 2022
- In April, I started designing the final interfaces for my installation. The idea was to refer to the differents contexts of surveillance and self-surveillance evoked in my thesis.
- Luckily, Joseph explained to me how to make the serial communication between Arduino and P5.Js with more than one sensor value, by splitting the data in many parts.
May 2022
- In May, I started considering to transiting from a small to a bigger screen for the grad show. I also updated the position of the different sensors.
- While I spent the previous month designing the different stages interfaces, I spent this one connecting all the displayed values to the sensors.

Count On Me
"Count On Me" is an interactive data collector that rewards your attention span and responsiveness in crypto-currency.
In order to maximize profits, you will need to accurately position yourself in the space and pay attention to the instructions. Each micro-task performed allows the visitor to get extra payouts and unlock different stages ranging from stock ticker interfaces, wellness applications, gambling games, captchas, streaming platforms, self-checkouts, eg. Once ready to leave, the visitor can convert its crypto-earnings into euros by refering to a randomly assigned conversion rate.
How does it works?
