Holding myself accountable ✨
This is the beginning of a new project; I am creating my own Biodata Sonification Kit using this tutorial, while also documenting my process on here!
I know next to nothing about MIDI and Galvanic Conductance, but we are experimenting (fucking around and finding out)
List of Tools
From what I've gathered from the tutorial I need:
- 3.5mm jack
- Blue (?) Capacitor 4700pf
- Resistor (3.9K)
- 555 Timer IC (8pin)
- 5 LEDs (red, orange, green, blue, white)
- 10 Ohm Resistor
- 11 Jumper Wires
- Solderless Breadboard
- CR2032 Button Battery 3 volts
- Adafruit Feather ESP32
- microUSB Cable
Some extra info for components
Resistor
In Greek: Αντιστάτης The resistor is a passive electrical component that creates resistance in the flow of electric current. In almost all electrical networks and electronic circuits they can be found. The resistance is measured in ohms (Ω). An ohm is the resistance that occurs when a current of one ampere (A) passes through a resistor with a one volt (V) drop across its terminals. The current is proportional to the voltage across the terminal ends. This ratio is represented by Ohm’s law:
R = V / I
Resistors are used for many purposes. A few examples include limiting electric current, voltage division, heat generation, matching and loading circuits, gain control, and setting time constants. They are commercially available with resistance values over a range of more than nine orders of magnitude. They can be used as electric brakes to dissipate kinetic energy from trains, or be smaller than a square millimeter for electronics.
