Projects
- Sound Jars: recived all my materials! Derick helped me wire up a power supply, a pot terminal, and a buck. Everything worked except one buckdown we wired. I realized can screw in the motors to the bottoms of th lid with tiny machine screws so I will be working on that next.

jars paired with motors
First prototype of big jar, 12V motor
- Connectere Concrete: —
- Drum Machine: Cemented shoes dried but cracked! will have to redo...
- Running Man: —
- Tape Loops: Harry recorded about 15 minutes of field recordings that we spliced together into 8"-14" loops. I took the face off of the tape recorder and moved the 4ohm speaker to the outside. 75% success rate, need a new shell. Began prototyping a shelf.
