Week 458 – Mixed Media

Each week we’ll endeavour to publish some details of the interesting things that members of DoES Liverpool have been up to over the past seven days. You can find out a bit more about them in our introductory post.

And remember, if you’re involved with DoES Liverpool at all, let us know what you get up to so we can include it here!

Things of Note

• Alex Lennon (making 🍀 Tam O’ Shanter’s 💰🐮🎤): Got the HyperRAM PMOD PCBs in for the #BlackIceMx from OSH Park. Yay! #weeknotes Lawrie Griffiths Al pic.twitter.com/o0kLVLbt5F
  
• laura pullig: Working on a kit tonight at wearable tech night DoES Liverpool. It’s for workshop next week with Project Collective to explore movement using sensors and actuators. #weeknotes pic.twitter.com/jLghc3tWrd
  
• Adrian McEwen: Took a copy of the Hannah Festival directory over to Norris Green to Little Sandbox / SandboxWorkshop. Each time I visit they’ve got more #makerspace kit and are busier with makers making and learning business and kids learning and using tech #weeknotes #LiverpoolHannahLinks pic.twitter.com/9YaeL9mNu5
  
  
  
• Jess Shannon: Snake over E1.31 (DMX), controlling a WLED neopixel. Just because I could. Will look good when the whole light wall is up and running! NodeJs source here github.com/jesshannon/sna… if you run this in DoES Liverpool network it should just work #weeknotes pic.twitter.com/3mZfF5L6cK

• Adrian McEwen: The DoES Liverpool #vinylcutter is finally back in action, so I’ve updated the #quote poster in the stairwell of @tapestrylpl #weeknotes @ DoES Liverpool instagram.com/p/B9uFD1bg0vz/…
• Adrian McEwen: Also tried out a #3Dprinted pen adapter for the #vinylcutter to let me use biros in it rather than custom pens, and had a play with Evil Mad Scientist #stipplegen for some nice text infill. Now I need to find some nicer pens for more experiments #weeknotes pic.twitter.com/I6LGuOqG4N
