Your name is ARDUNO BOOLEA.

You are consumed by a passion for ROBOTICS and COMPUTING, but SELDOM SUCCEED at producing anything IMPRESSIVE, or even STABLE. You often spend weeks cooped up in your RESPITEBLOCK obsessing over your own rickety creations, and hope one day to earn the prestigious title of SCIENSTIFF. You are also fond of ROLE PLAYING GAMES such as FLARP, which you enjoy with your MATESPRIT, NAMMEX.

As a LOWLY BRASSBLOOD, you boast meager telekinetic abilities, and the rare mutation of HETERO-COLOURBLINDNESS. This allows you the incredible advantage of bring DIFFERENT TYPES OF COLOURBLIND IN EACH EYE. You also possess the psychic ability to DULL STRONG EMOTIONS OF OTHERS, but due to an UNFORTUNATE INCIDENT yet to be disclosed, you are RELUCTANT TO USE IT. 

As a result of your DANGEROUS SUN-GAZING HABITS, though you always ensure your eyes are always SUFFICIENTLY PROTECTED, your skin has been pockmarked with countless SOLAR DOTS.

You answer to GENDER NEUTRAL PRONOUNS. Your trollhandle is abberantCircuit, and you type 1n ∧ w∧y y0u th1nk c0n∨eys y0ur 1nterests.

What will you do?

In today’s digital world all of us use a number of electronic devices and equipments, some of which we cannot dream of living without. These are big and small items including television, kitchen equipments, laptops, computers, mobile phones, cameras and many more electronic components.

All these products have a printed circuit board or an embedded development board or some other kind of board. All the performance and the functional capacity of the electronic equipments depend completely on this board.  These boards are individually designed to perform a specific function in a specific manner. A board designed for a laptop cannot function on a television or a computer. Thus these boards are vital for the proper functioning of the devices.

When you buy electronic components in India are elsewhere can should be taken to get the right kind of components and also ensure that they are of good quality. A printed circuit board is in fact a platform where all types of electronic wires and components are fixed together in such a manner that the electronic device on which the board is fitted, works efficiently. These boards thus function as mediums through which all the components of the device are connected through varied pathways.

The designer uses many processes while designing a printed circuit board, including etching, screen printing, panelization, drilling, laminating, photoengraving and drilling. The way this board is designed will impact the functionality of the electronic device. The board also needs a number of materials such as copper foil, resins, copper cladded laminates etc.

These boards are usually found in many devices including telecommunication devices, medical equipments, kitchen appliances, computer hardware etc. When you buy electronic components in India, the bulk of the cost of the electronic device you buy depends on the quality, design and functionality of these boards.

Another important component used is the Arduino uno India. This is also a board with microcontroller and is based on AT mega 328. This has 14 pins, both output and input which are digital in nature. This also has a USB connection, 6 inputs in analog style, ceramic resonators, a power jack, a reset button and ICSP header.

All that is required to support the microcontroller can be found in the Arduino uno in India. You only have to connect it a computer through the USB cable or battery or power it with a suitable adapted to get it started. This board can also be programmed with the suitable software which can in turn be downloaded from the internet. You do not have to press any reset button before you upload. This board is designed in such a way that it permits resetting by any software, that is running on the computer the board is connected to at that particular time.

So, continuing our project, I got my Arduino and got an image of Auckland from google. Then, on Photoshop, I used the grid and matched the rooftops to it. After coding, I got to this:

El Arma Sonora Telemática es una herramienta para realizar manifestaciones en el espacio físico a través de las redes sociales.

Encontramos una estructura metálica de 4 x 6 mts ubicada frente al Campo Marte, un campo militar que encierra historias de un pasado represivo que se ha ido olvidando poco a poco.

Intervenimos la estructura con 64 tubos galvanizados conectados a un motor. Este mecanismo es activado a distancia cada vez que alguien escribe #BANGCampoMarte en Twitter. Esta es el Arma Sonora Telemática.

Un arma es un dispositivo que amplía la dirección y la magnitud de una fuerza. Nosotros queremos amplificar un cuestionamiento colectivo sobre el rol de la violencia en la historia reciente de México.

El A.S.T. puede ser activada y fácilmente replicada por personas en otros lugares del mundo. Te invitamos a participar de este ejercicio de manifestación virtual. También ponemos a tu disposición todo el manual de construcción y código.
