It’s almost October…have you figured out Halloween?
How was Tuesday? Let’s review how it went and then let me give you some Arduino background.

It’s almost October…have you figured out Halloween?
How was Tuesday? Let’s review how it went and then let me give you some Arduino background.
Today’s work:
We are off to a great start with Arduino.
You have two tasks due today. If you complete your work before the end of class you may work on material for another. Do not play computer games or play on your phone:
Tuesday – back to Engineering to finish up your card structures. We are waiting for more supplies to come in!
Today: removing a background from an image in Photoshop.
Download both images onto your computer:
Ironman
We will use Select, Subject to get started on this image.
Liu Bolin – concealment/performance artist – check out his website
Try Select, Subject on this one…does it work? Probably not so we will use Magnetic Lasso and Quick Mask.
Take your image of Liu Bolin and place it on another image. Save it as a JPG and turn it in on Canvas.
Introductions and Card Engineering
Card Engineering
As a kid (and older) I have spent many happy hours building playing card structures. These were free standing structures and if I got more than three or four stories off the floor before a collapse it was a good day.
Your mission today is a bit different. You and your group will select an existing structure that you would like to recreate with playing cards. You GET to use hot glue, a wooden base and you can cut the cards.
Pro tips:
1. hot glue sparingly – too much will make your construction heavy from the weight of the glue.
2. talk to the other people in your group and decide who will start building which part.
