The Art of Conversation

Students: Lisa Guo, Wolfe Erikson  ·  Year: 2021  ·  Course: Physical Computing

The Art of Conversation is a little machine that draws as people are talking. It records the art of a conversation into a small circular drawing. Each conversation has a unique print.

This project was a quick sketch in our learning for Physical Computing. It uses two servo motors: one attached to the pen and the other attached to the spinning base with paper. Using a sound sensor, it activates when it hears conversation and starts its rotation and drawing. In bringing this sketch to life, the team learned a lot about the complexities that circuits and code being in one place can bring to a project.
