| − | I grouped up with Mickey, Axel and Ayo. Denis gave us a lecture about basic electricity. We did a small exercise to show what we learned from the class. We did a small play to show how plus and minus electrons work when they are close and far from each other.

| − | To be honest, I missed half of the class because of the unmatched planning on mywdka and wike page. I tried to follow what was going on during the class and Denis explained me what I could do.
| |
| − | And then I realised I actually did the similar thing at an open course last year which was about making a circuit that makes noise when you touch. I could also made a noise with water.

| − | I made an weaving loom with LED at quarter 6 at fine art department and decided to develop the work. The concept was about weaving my own tapestry as a traveller. Since I have mainly worked with textile so far and I wanted to make my own textile. I got the idea of weaving a tapestry from a travel to Morocco. I visited Berber people's village and could see many tapestry works of them. They are also nomadic tribe. I have travelled a lot and now I am staying in the Netherlands. Therefore I wanted to describe my identity by weaving a tapestry. The light from the fibres signifies the star constellation, which guides you find the direction when you are lost on trip.

| − | I decided to continue this work for this practice. This time, I wanted to make a wearable object like smart textile. I already had the material "optical fibre". I decided to make a cape which also signifies traveller, and to weave optical fibre through the cape. At the beginning I just wanted to use some LEDs and Arduino to programme some changes in the light as before. But when I talked to the teachers they suggested me to use light sensor "LDR", and I thought it would be awesome. So I decided to make a fibre-woven, lighted cape that interacts with lightness of surroundings.

| |
| − | So I asked Thomas for help to make a circuit. I could get the light source from the package with optical fibre. I also measured the voltage and current of each R, G, B lines and white wire for + but forgot to take pictures..
| |
| − | From the result of measurement, I could know which transistor and resistor I need for this circuit.<br>
| |
| − | 3 x '''BD139 transistor''' for each R, G, B lines<br>
| |
| − | 3 x '''360 ohm resistor''' for each R, G, B lines<br>
| |
| − | 1 x '''10K ohm resistor''' for Arduino<br>
| |
| − | 1 x '''LDR''' (Light sensor)
| |

| − | First I tried with breadboard and then it worked properly. Then I soldered the actual circuit.<br>

| − | However, when I took this to the last class and tried out if it works, there was a problem with the LDR-resistor part. When I tried to plug the voltage pin on Arduino it got really hot. Denis explained to me it was because I connected the voltage and ground so it was making a very short circuit. So I changed the connection between LDR and resistor. Then it started to work, but the value of LDR was not changing that significantly. It was in between 974-1024. So I asked Thomas and he said there is another error again.<br>

| − | However, even after I fixed the circuit, LDR was working the same and for some reason, Red light was not working. I think I broke the transistor while I was soldering. Same thing happened to me before when I was soldering too long and too hot. So I had to give up some of my original plan. My original plan was to make the light brighter in the dark and after I realised the red light was not working, I wanted to programme like when it's dark, there is more Blue value and when it gets lighter it has more green value. But then LDR was not working. So I dropped the idea of programming complicated. I just put the blue and green light together all the time. Then finally it worked!<br>

| − | There were many small mistakes during the process but to summarise what I failed are:<br>
| |
| − | '''Use of LDR'''<br>
| |
| − | '''Complicated programming'''
| |
| − | | |
| − | I kind of pushed myself to try out more complex circuit than I did before. But unfortunately not everything worked out as planned. But still, I learned new things such as how to prevent making a short circuit, how to measure voltage and current to know the right resistor, and I also vaguely remember DC and AC therefore I need a transistor. I still want to try to fix the circuit to accomplish my original goal and revise all new things I learned from the process.
