I'm still slowly tinkering with my arduino. This was a project from the book called the "Love-O-Meter" and the little black thing amidst the wires is a temperature sensor. As the temerature rises, more of the lights turn on.
A 3.3V 8MHz Arduino Pro connected to an XBee Series 2.5 and a battery. The other Xbee is on the Sparkfun Explorer USB and connected to a Python program that responds to the Arduino's calls.
The long exposure shot lights up the LEDs :o
Hacking my Decimila to allow direct programming of the ATMega168 by bit-banging the USB-Serial port with Avrdude. Here you can see the jumpers I soldered to the board.

Using RFID-tagged clay figures, I created an encyclopedia of bioluminescence creatures. Audio-visual information is relayed when the creature is hovered over the RFID reader and Arduino board, which is connected to the laptop via Funnel. I made this during my internship at the American Museum of Natural History, and presented it at my Prototyping Class at SVA.
Arduino Heartbeat sensor circuit soldered together without a board. Later enshrined in electrical tape.

My diy light meter, in a small enclosure. I think it's too small LoL. But fits in a light sensor and an RGB sensor to measure Kelvin temperature with 370mAh rechargeble lithium battery. It's a prototype?
So, this is my build on the project featured in the Arduino Starter Kit book. I'm quite chuffed with this, considering I don't know what I'm doing.
People have been asking me to actually talk about my feelings. There is a consensus that I don't talk about what I feel. Often you'll just hear me say "That's cool" and "Awesome" or "Sucks" and "Not Cool."
So let me say this, In the photo above, I feel poetry. I feel something like bpNicohols and Christian Bok. More than anything else I feel Jeff Knight's poem 'Peyote'. I don't feel Jeff's poem visually here, I feel it in what will become of this arduino board.
It will become the Living Day. And to quote Jeff's poem:
"Raindrops hit the windshield and sliver up the right.
Sometimes the raindrops spell words in languages that I have forgotten how to read.
It keeps running thru my mind that I should have brought my camera. I could capture all these drops all these words. I could take them home, I could study them later. I could learn to decode the complicated hieroglyphics of water on glass. But its not such a great idea.
There Isn't enough film in the world.
The hiss of the tires in the rainy dessert night smells like... coffee."
What inspires me to feel generally fits within two categories: Jazz or Poetry. Rarely both.
This microcontroller that I was working on, at this exact moment, was poetry.
To give you an idea of what my eyes see as Jazz: At a bus stop on 22nd and Walnut, Philadelphia, there is a row of residential buildings. From that bus stop, looking straight ahead at the sides of all these houses, jazz lives in the arrangement of the windows to rooftops places in the hands of time's mismatched architects and construction crew's need for conformity and price. It is, to me, the closest thing I have ever seen to John Coltrane's Ascension.
Some Dave Brubek's recording Impressions of Japan has most Center City's Spruce street in Philadelphia covered (when it is sunny and not too hot.)
On 13th and Walnut, sitting on the stoop and looking up to right at the skyline, The transitional period of Miles Davis's outward perception between "Kind of Blue" to "Live Evil" exist, depending on the time of day and cloud position. It is a feeling of the street and the feeling of it passing thru to the inside of me.
So, dear consensus, for the moment until I can better explain 'my feelings' you are just gonna have to live with Jazz and Poetry.

What is Arduino?
Arduino is an open-source physical computing platform based on a simple i/o board, and a development environment for writing Arduino software. The Arduino programming language is an implementation of Wiring, itself built on Processing.
Arduino can be used to develop interactive objects, taking inputs from a variety of switches or sensors, and controlling a variety of lights, motors, and other outputs. Arduino projects can be stand-alone, or they can be communicate with software running on your computer (e.g. Flash, Processing, MaxMSP.) The boards can be assembled by hand or purchased preassembled; the open-source IDE can be downloaded for free.
For the ArtHeist I need a way to control multiple AC devices (lights and stuff) from an Arduino. What's the safest, most reliable way to do that?
The Optek OSSRD0002A solid state relays are awesome and provide exactly that function. Take a cheap extension cord, cut it in two, wire up the Optek to one of the AC wires (wirenut the other two). Then hook any source of DC voltage from 4V to 32V to the logic side "+" & "-" inputs on the Optek to turn on the AC side.
To protect everything, I got a cheap $0.72 handy box and cover for electrical outlets and stuck everything in there.
Also, a red LED was added in parallel to the logic inputs to give a visual indication of it being switched on.
