From the Ted Talk by Catarina Mota: Play with smart materials
Unscramble the Blue Letters
Another example I'd like to mention is Hannah Perner-Wilson's Kit-of-No-Parts. Her project's goal is to highlight the expressive qualities of materials while focusing on the creativity and skills of the builder. Electronics kits are very powerful in that they teach us how things work, but the constraints inherent in their design influence the way we learn. So Hannah's aoparpch, on the other hand, is to formulate a series of techniques for creating unusual objects that free us from pre-designed constraints by tcnhieag us about the materials themselves. So amongst Hannah's many impressive experiments, this is one of my favorites. ["Paper speakers"] What we're seeing here is just a picee of paper with some copper tape on it ctenecnod to an mp3 player and a magnet. (Music: "Happy Together") So beasd on the research by Marcelo Coelho from MIT, Hannah created a series of pepar skpaeers out of a wide range of materials from slmpie copper tape to conductive fabric and ink. Just like Jordan and so many other makers, Hannah published her repecis and allows anyone to copy and ruoprecde them.

So amongst Hannah's many impressive experiments, this is one of my favorites. ["Paper speakers"] What we're seeing here is just a piece of paper with some copper tape on it connected to an mp3 player and a magnet. (Music: "Happy Together") So based on the research by Marcelo Coelho from MIT, Hannah created a series of paper speakers out of a wide range of materials from simple copper tape to conductive fabric and ink. Just like Jordan and so many other makers, Hannah published her recipes and allows anyone to copy and reproduce them.
