The second project: Fireworks night

After learning about the basic steps to develop the turtle art project, I started to find one suitable topic to make my own turtle art piece.

When I stand on the subway and scrolled down the photos on my phone,  I found this picture I took a few days ago when I walked along with friends at Hudson Rivers.


Then I decided to create a different version of this photo to delete the city elements and add some fireworks to my art piece.

When I searched on the turtle art gallery, I found a few art pieces I can borrow some elements. such as these two pieces:


After analyzing their codes and elements, I was happy to adopt the boat elements and the fan-shaped object into my work.

With the up-middle-down three-layered layout, I put the fireworks on the up-level of the whole piece and make boats close to the sea level. I adjusted the block codes from these two pieces including the shape the color and the position. With some experimental experience, I made this piece.


It shows a scenery that some boats are floating on the sea and the fireworks enlighten the sky.  I would also like to figure out how to add some complicated city elements, but I haven't found some reliable examples yet.  The whole process of exploring is very enjoyable and interesting.

The code is here:

Cooperation Sensor

Here are two cooperation projects made by me and Yanfang Di. We used one microbit as a receiver to receive light and the power of the sliding sensor to run a servo. We set the limitation volume as 700, which means if the sliding sensor receives a larger number than 700, the servo will receive a message to run itself.

The fourth project- My favorite instrument

The idea of invention literacy is quite impressive for me, especially the saying"If it can be created by a human, then it can be recreated by you, me, and all of us. But only if we all believe in ourselves as inventors (and re-inventors)."( Jay Silver, Invention literacy) Inspired by the idea that every human-created staff can be recreated by me and the class instruction, I start to think about use Makey Makey to recreate my favorite instrument- Guzheng. I have played it for a few years and I still play it to relieve my stress recently. So I decided to choose it as my recreated object. Firstly, I recorded the sound of Guzheng on my iphone and wrote a simple script on Scractch to use those sounds. The special thing for Guzheng is that, it mainly have 5 strings （12356）for one scale and you need to press the string to get 4 and 7. So I decided to choose the simplest version of the piece "Jasmine". As for the objects to connect to my laptop, Yanfang has proposed m...
