A new vision of the “home” is emerging. Nearly any object possesses the ability to predict our needs, respond to our commands, and track our movements. The form and function of the Internet is poised to evolve—and along with it, our relationship with media. What opportunities exist to take advantage of this flourishing space, and what challenges must they prepare for?
This event, organized by NYC Media Lab and hosted at Civic Hall on May 21, 2015, gave a broad perspective on the impact of connected devices on the home. The evening consisted of a "science fair" with participation from startups, media companies, and university research labs at the cutting edge.

Already, the cloud is powerful enough to help us communicate through real-time language translation, increase our knowledge from access to powerful supercomputers such as Wolfram Alpha, and improve our health using computing platforms like IBM’s Watson in new ways.

So, this is the Arduino mood cue thing, that you find in the starter set book. You wire up a potentiometer to a servo motor which then swivels the arm around. I'm getting a little bored of just wiring up and coding the things in the book so I decided to build on it and make something of my own.
