This is the device that is on the other end of the system - it has a receiver radio and translates the signals from the buttons into something that the conputer recognizes as a usb keyboard. It is made using hardware and software from the VUSB toolkit.

This is an example of how I use Paint Shop Pro as a design tool.
Image number one is an original mono print using acrylic paint on to calico.
Image two is the first manipulation, which involved layering on top of photographs and manipulating the image using the effects tool.
The background is a refinement of these two images using further photographs and textile backgrounds and the displacement map tool.
This simple process will give me a great many ideas to work on which will hopefully lead to a full textile piece.
I have gradually come to use this work process over time and find it most usefull, although I have to start with a sketch and develop the idea in stitch.
Work in progress.
"What shall I wear today - who am I?"
This final section shows a woman as a voter ( at last).
I have made it out of pleated shot silk and ribbons with added computer designed text. It is covered by a plastic dome which has the effect of ageing the sentiment.

The very rare Early Spider Orchid photographed in late April at Durlston Country Park. This was a flower I had tagged with my GPS last year and so I found it very quickly.
I found this old canvas when I was looking for something else in my attic.
It was part of the Ada Lovelace series, but in the end I rejected it as too bland.
So, I have now decided to recyle it and as you can see I have pulled some of the motifs off the canvas and I have painted over the rest.
The first layer was black gesso, then dark red acrylic and a bronze acrylic layer on top.
It now awaits another layer of black acrylic.
I just love painting over stitching and fabric and seeing something new emerge.
