Whew! Mistakes were made, but I got the dashboard of the Beat Bike put together. I can now pedal to set the tempo while I live program the drum machine. (No video of programming yet because I had to hold the phone up high!)

The bike is an old cranky Raleigh mountain bike my neighbor gave me for free, up on a trainer in my basement.

The control box (top, center) takes input from a reed switch at the real wheel, from the magnet mounted on the spokes.

Power for RD-6 is 6 AA batteries in a pack. Power for control box is from a USB power bank.

I still need to mount the amp, speaker, and another battery on a rear rack.

5x5x5 cube powered by 🌈

(Music by @noiseissues )

A camera pans around a cube made of small, multicolored LED lights arranged in a 3D volumetric grid. The lights change colors in patterns as the cube is shown from different angles. Background music by DESTROY WITH SCIENCE plays.

Video shows a PCB in close-up, parts on the PCB are modelled like the stones at Stonehenge. LEDs are blinking.

Good news, there's an unreal amount of interest in meshcore lately.

My community came together and group purchased 20 nodes and have rapidly been onboaring tons of new LoRa curious hackers.

It looks like I might have single handedly increased the user base of the Seattle meshcore user base by 10 - 20%.

Announcing a makers calendar for the uk.

https://parsecsreach.org/makers_calendar_uk/

If you run an event for makers in the uk please let me know. At the moment I don't really care how you let me know, replies to this are fine, but ideally issues on the github repo here: https://github.com/emilyselwood/makers_calendar_uk or even pull requests if you feel up to it. (you can do them through the github web interface, no need to even clone it)

I've added @MakersHour and my local repair cafe to get started.
