John Park’s Light Paintbrush @adafruit @johnedgarpark #adafruit #CircuitPlayground

Paint with light using the Circuit Playground Light Paintbrush for long exposure photography. Tilt the brush to change colors using the on-board accelerometer.   Streaks of colorful light, suspended in midair — ever since people began to capture images on film we have had a fascination with light painting and light drawing. By simply moving a light source in front of an open shutter, motion over time could be captured on camera.

John Park’s PZ-1 Pizza Box DJ Controller @adafruit #adafruit @johnedgarpark #circuitplayground

Build your own DJ controller using a cardboard pizza box, conductive paint, and a Circuit Playground! The PZ-1 pizza box DJ controller uses a Circuit Playground, which senses your capacitive touch and speaks MIDI directly to your software, such as Traktor, Mixxx, and others. With a stencil and conductive paint you’ll create a delicious, functional controller layout. Inspired by a limited edition pizza box turntable from a famous pizza brand, now you can make your own!

John Park’s Mystery Box: Crypto Countdown Case @adafruit #adafruit @johnedgarpark

Build your own Cold War-era countdown timer prop with John Park’s Mystery Box: Crypto Countdown Case learning guide. This mystery box is a Soviet themed launch-code box complete with missile switch covered toggles, a Feather microcontroller with red 14-segment display, and stress-inducing piezo buzzer. Use it for an escape room, prop, or wedding proposal. Your players, or potential spouse-to-be, will need to enter the correct five-switch sequence to defuse the device before all is lost. (Note: this project is a harmless prop, not an actual bomb.) Customize it with your own secret message.
