A group of Halina's silicone 'lungs' were rigged with internal armatures and controlled by Arduino microcontrollers. Distance sensors increased the speed of a motor, which made the lungs 'breathe' faster as you approached. An electrical prototype was designed and created and has since been superseded by a more robust system for touring.

First shown at School of Art, BCU.

Distance sensors were used to trigger and control synthesised sounds by sending MIDI data via Arduino microcontrollers to music software. Moving around the space and waving your hands created music. A touch sensitive rail was also developed and allowed audience members to explore the colourful, sound reactive environment and interact with the structures.

Shown at Birmingham Open Media (BOM) as part of Fierce Festival.

Weeks of fun and learning about simple programming and robotics was held over 5 days at creative hub Birmingham Open Media (BOM). Over the week children designed, programmed and built their own electrical creations often using microcontrollers, LED lights, motors and servos. Other activities involved video, games, artwork and photography.

I provided workshops, tutorials, learning activities and guidance alongside BOM staff, volunteers and others such as Amy Martin of Famalam and the 8Bit Pirates. I lead Summer Camp as technical lead FROM 2016-2018 before becoming an employee at BOM and providing Summer Camp with staff until 2022.
