Week 12 - Arduino Music and Cleanup week

This week I have made Circuit 6 of the ARDX experiments for the Arduino. This experiment played with a Piezo Element which produces tones which you can then control to make notes. By setting durations and pauses you can make melodies.

The sample that the experiment plays is "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" - and that worked fine as the setup was very easy. So I toyed with the tempo and the notes and changed it up to play "Row Your Boat", which helped me to understand how the original sketch worked. This was fun.





Ended up going to Toronto to watch the Sabres play against the Leafs. Sat just above Wayne Gretzky's Dad (cool) and Mike Myers was there. With family coming in, getting over being sick and now dealing with a food allergy (ugh), I've all to do this and clean up around the house. But, actually getting the house clean before family showed up was a big goal this week and mission completed in time. Woo hoo! Sometimes it's the little things.

So in summary got one more Arduino experiment out of the way, and got the house cleaned up in time. Not bad again considering the ailments and time constraints.
