Cosplay is a form of art worth exploring and examining. The team at Cosplay Boom is doing both of those things with their documentary series. They visit conventions and do more than compile video montages of cosplayers – they speak with them. They go in depth with cosplayers about why they got into the hobby, why they attend certain conventions, background on the characters they’re dressed as, and about how their costume was made.
The interviews are anywhere from a minute to a couple of hours long, and you can choose from dozens. It’s a great source for inspiration and learning. I’ve included a few of my favorites here, but you should visit Cosplay Boom on YouTube to see more.
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.
Have an amazing project to share? The Electronics Show and Tell is every Wednesday at 7pm ET! To join, head over to YouTube and check out the show’s live chat – we’ll post the link there.
