Version 3 of the touch harp on @BareConductive working okay. Still got issues when two/three strings are touched at the same time as it often plays nothing but I’m still pleased with it. All standalone now with no outside wires too. Next up is @BelaPlatform
Oh yes! @pimoroni are selling the @BelaPlatform and Trill instrument add ons too!!! Getting these ordered tomorrow!
Ooooh. I’ve been following some of the MakeCode Arcade live YouTube demos last two days. I’ll take a look at this too- can pretend I am in MIT. Also working on second accessible instrument...

Hiya. Anyone got a recommendation on what’s the best MakeCode Arcade physical board to get? Think I might invest in one.
The AylaTron Mk2 accessible instrument is ready for tomorrow! @CariadInteract @helenleigh @CMoorcraft @BareConductive
My award for making it through the 8 weeks! Have a great half term all you lovely teaching staff!

Messing around with the Kinect for Windows for old times sake. Great for interactive freestyle movement for pupils. This is @Somability part of the @Somantics range. Works a treat!

@HotelChocolat Received an awesome Vegan chocolate box from a pupil at school. Lovely chocs but the amount of plastic packaging is absolutely atrocious. E.g. two layers for a tiny bar (that is already sealed inside a box). Mixed materials and lots of black plastic. Unacceptable.

Hey. The @Oculus Quest box makes for great @arduino @microbit_edu and @adafruit storage. Three nice compartments to keep all those fiddly bits together...
I'm doing an @idea_award course on Digital Making and here is my first attempt at making a gif... @DVPdirect It will be better when I pick up issue 5 on Saturday...

Fab day with @helenleigh learning all about wearable tech and maker culture. Great account to follow for all you digital educators out there. I sewed a LED Fish too!
