Making Sound
Today I will create, extract, and place music or sounds for our audio paper. First, I edited the scripts I had recorded so that they flowed together smoothly, and I created locators for what music should go in between them. The music I needed was this 1. A tone gradually increasing from 50Hz to 20,000Hz…

Script
I have completed writing the entire script. However, it might exceed 10 minutes in length, so I plan to record it first and then shorten it by removing parts that can be omitted if necessary. Chapter 1: The Universal Definition of Sound What is sound? Sound is the transmission of pressure waves emitted from a…

Production(Final)
Today I finished up the installation and filmed and recorded everything. I started by connecting the copper wire and thread to the speakers, which I had already set up and ready to hang. After that, I got ready to attach the battery and Arduino to the ceiling. Initially, I was going to attach them to…

Production(2)
Now that I’m done testing, I have to do a lot of things quickly to actually set up and play. First of all, this time I had to shorten the sequence I made before because the battery problem limited the playing time, insulate it to prevent unnecessary noise and short circuit, and organise the installation…

Test(Final)
Today I received a nickel-metal hydride battery and put it to the test. I’ve had a lot of failures in this project, but this was the batteries’ things that gave me the most frustration. I needed to understand voltage and current, and I had to pay a lot of attention to the total capacity of…

Test(9)
The previous 9V batteries were carbon-zinc batteries, and due to their insufficient output, they didn’t function properly. The batteries I purchased this time are alkaline batteries, which provide better output than carbon-zinc batteries. Thankfully, they work well. The output is sufficient to make the speakers strike the metal plates effectively, and the sound is loud…

Production(1)
Today, while waiting for the ordered alkaline batteries to arrive, I plan to design a sequence and layout for a realistic play. First, I worked on the sequence and layout while waiting for the batteries. I started by thinking about the placement of the speakers. The space where I plan to exhibit is my living…

Test(8)
I finally got all the steel plates drilled, and now I’m going to combine all the parts, including the speakers and the steel plates, to see if the 12 speakers will work with the cord I wove. Firstly I joined the speakers and all the steel plates together, unfortunately I was a bit short of…

Test(7)
Today I did a quick test and talked about my work with Milo at the Uni. Firstly, I tried to adjust different variables to get different sounds out of the steel plate, but so far I haven’t found anything that works except the thickness of the plate. I had previously thought that the distance between…
