While thinking about my Final Project, I decided that I want to do either something useful or something connected to art/music. Thus, I so far have two ideas that I will be deciding between during the upcoming week.
1) Useful – Morse Code (or anything similar) translator. I will create the physical device that will take the input as a Morse Code (dashes and dots by pressing the button long or short period of time), and then translate it to the words on the screen of p5.js. At the same time, the person will be able to type the text on the laptop and it will be played as a sound on the p5.js.
2) Art/Music – I want to combine those two terms by expanding on the usage of the sensors. I want to connect a bunch of distance/light sensors and let the user control the music and the drawings on the canvas of p5.js. Just like with the assignment where we played the Jingle Bells song, I will use the sensors to speed up the music, change its tone of, and also add sounds on top of the song that is playing to allow a user to create the music. At the same time, it will also be reflected on the canvas as a unique kind of art. This is a very ambitious project that I am not 100% sure how to accomplish, but I will do my best to think about it during the week.
