Faced a few setbacks with the lighting. Its hard for the LEDs to light up so I had to rewire them again. Furthermore, the pressure sensor’s spoilt on the day itself so I have to edit the threshold for the sensor in my coding on Arduino to zero and make the lights blink together instead. Initial concept: Light’s supposed… Read more →

Solution for translucent skirt
How I decided to solve this issue is to get white fabric to form a maxi lining. I’m so thankful towards Galina in providing me with the skirting for the skirt. While fixing the tech parts of the dress, realised that the conductive threads tend to touch when its loose (since mine goes over the shoulder so I need… Read more →

In fact, theĀ other plastic pieces are created by cutting from leftover plastics or by fusing smaller pieces of plastics together. This is in line… Read more →
Filtration system
Technology-wise, I’m researching on the different ways to create a filtration system for the cones. I’ve narrowed down to a few concept that I found interesting: Extracting water from humid air (1) Fontus The cooler consists of two parts, the upper side and the lower side. When there’s electricity, it will heat up the lower side and cools the… Read more →
