This week’s labs were pretty straight forward. The hardest part was getting close enough to my terrible piezo speaker so I could hear it to make sure that the circuit and code was working. As my speaker sucks I decided to do something more creative with the servo. I thought how a servo would be great for turning a frown into a smile, and as I was using an FSR this seemed like the obvious next step. I also thought about Happy Play Time, a sex education game and this year’s pitch event winner at the Games for Change festival. That game is designed to destigmatize female masturbation and encourage females to be more comfortable with their body. Of course, male masturbation is not nearly as stigmatized as female masturbation. Nonetheless doing this made me think about how physical computing could be a great tool for sex education and for explaining and exploring sexuality. Perhaps more lewd projects to come.
