FITC Workshop – Bridging Physical and Digital Through Arduino and Flash

About 1 week ago I had the pleasure of leading a 7 hour workshop on physical computing and how to connect flash to Arduino.  Thanks to Sparkfun, we had a great set of components and support from Chris Rojas.

The official title of the workshop was:

Bridging Physical and Digital Through Arduino and Flash – Workshop”

Description: Physical computing is about connecting the digital with the physical space, and this has never been more relevant and accessible to digital creative than now. Spend the day with CP+B technologists prototyping with Flash and arduino. Attendees will be divided up into small teams, given a box of components, a random creative brief, and tasked with building a working prototype by the end of the session. Sparkfun will be on-hand with gobs of free gadgets for us to experiment with and some guidance on how best to use them. Seven hours, a huge mess of Sparkfun parts and your imagination. Anything is possible.

The workshop was great with over 25 people all working together to build great things.  Here are some photos taken by Chris Rojas of Sparkfun during the workshop:
