here are some notes/thoughts from our phone conversation yesterday:
1- the valves prove to be an interesting contact/connection between projects. although patrick touched on this, this was the first thing that came to mind when i was watching the ppt presentation, specifically because of any twisting movement, push/pull, etc. elmo's arms work in a way that could be condusive to many types of valves.
2- using foil tape - do tapes exist that could carry a current? i don't even know.
3 - i loved the woven tower proposed by RPI - the potential for movement with that structure makes it compatible with the micro switches and sensors in many of our projects.
4 - the inner tube project was interesting, and i like the idea of seperating the skin from the structure, but maintaining pneumatic elements throughout. the flexibility of this structure is great, and could be integrated with electronics easily.
5 - projection - the skew that the structure provided to the projected image was great, and i appreciate that both strategies were explored (clear/out of focus). this is something that also could be highly integrated with our group's ideas.
