Title: Disturbance in the Water
Materials:
Betta fish (Frank)
Ardunio board
Piezo sensor
Water filter
Fish tank
Switch tail
Speaker
Mp3 player
Waterproof bag
How it works
The piezo sensor measures vibrations of the water, that is generated from the sound from the MP3 player that is hooked up to a speaker that is in a waterproof bag that is submerge in the water in the fish tank which is placed over the fish tank. Once the vibrations reach the assigned threshold, the water filter that has fish food inserted in the filter tray, will turn on to feed the fish.
What’s point?
I am working on developing a complexity relationship between the sound, vibrations that added to Frank’s environment and feeding him as the same time to create the reaction of what Frank decides to do. The end result is we see Frank either adapt to his surrounding or eat the food or just swim around angry.
