Shopping List

rePLAY will feature unique and fun handcrafted soft circuits.

These circuits are a range of designs, in fabric and yarn, custom-made to cover various types of sensors such as pressure sensors, stoke, stretch and tilt potentiometer. A microphone and a toy paper windmill will be used as sensors that a user blows into.

Designs will take the form of organic matter found in a forest environment, for example origami flowers or conductive play-dough rocks. In addition, rePLAY may have hand-drawn circuits; using paper and conductive paint.

Shopping around for ideas; we may or may not use some or all of these.
