Chris Novello, whose “illucia” project has been on the blog and in the Adafruit Show+Tell, was recently featured on MTV Brasil’s “Mod MTV” technology program. Chris’ segment, which begins at around 3’20”, shows him doing his illucia thing in the subway station at Union Square in NYC. He writes:
I was on MTV Brasil’s technology show this week – they invited me to do an interview for ModMTV, so I decided to have a proper adventure and take them “codebusking” in NYC.
We went to Union Square and they filmed me patching video games in the subway platform with my new “illucia one” codebending instrument. I had just been to the dentist, so I was a little clumsy / nervous, but the MTV people were super nice, and it was quite a fun & surreal experience.
Below is a short interview I did with Chris at the Open Hardware Summit, explaining his project:
Adafruit publishes a wide range of writing and video content, including interviews and reporting on the maker market and the wider technology world. Our standards page is intended as a guide to best practices that Adafruit uses, as well as an outline of the ethical standards Adafruit aspires to. While Adafruit is not an independent journalistic institution, Adafruit strives to be a fair, informative, and positive voice within the community – check it out here: adafruit.com/editorialstandards
Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, TinyGO, or even use the Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
