Intro
This mini-project consists in developing a compo on the Milkymist open hardware system-on-chip platform that will present Sanobot, the toxic gas sensor and Twitter bot of /tmp/lab, a hackerspace set up close to a chemical factory.
We look forward to presenting it at demoparties (unfortunately it was not ready for Main#4).

Debriefing from meeting with kiniou
--Alban 08:24, 4 September 2009 (PDT)
- General Theme : We could use Sanobot.
- Visual option : 2D plain forms, kind of cartoon / manga (Kiniou : links ?)
- Still working on it ;) -- kiniou
- Script proposal : 3 phases
- Duration : 3 minutes
1. Start/Intro
- A . Sanobot data as raw / random numbers flowing on the screen
Graphics : monochromous, greenish Visuals : Numbers retrieved randomly from csv and scrolling / zooming Sound : gloomy and experimental synths pads Idea : start with something strange that will make sense only later
- Question : Can we modulate rythm of numbers apparition and their scrolling speed with music analysis ? Ex: no music, no number. Loud : larger font. Bass : slow scroll.
- Question : Can we define a length for such a sequence, have it render to screen randomly for a given duration ?
- B. Sanobot as a technical system
Graphics : colourful, fresh Visuals : illustrations of sanobot character, manga style animations Sound : rythmic, funky, acid Idea : Present sanobot, what it does / how it's built
2. Sanobot in action
A. Sanobot data : from random to graphics
Graphics : fresh illustration in front of monochrome background Visuals : sanobot character dancing in front of the csv numbers now showing the date : proves they're organized Sound : mix of both preceding style Idea : show the numbers seen in 1.A. are not random but organised
B. Sanobot in its environment
Graphics : colourful, fresh Visuals : illustrations of sanobot character, manga style animations Sound : rythmic, funky, acid ( harder than before ) Idea : why it's called sanobot and presents its enemy : the mighty Sanomonster, Master of All Toxic Wastes
3. Finale
- A. Sanobot data : from graphics to communication
Graphics : fresh cartoon style Visuals : sanobot character dances as we see the data being distributed on a network Sound : rythmic music at full pace Idea : show the numbers seen in 1.A. are being distributed worldwide in a meaningful objective
Note : this part should use modulation of visuals depending on graphics as every other A. parts
- B. Sanobot in the future
Visuals : Many sanobots appearing. Sound : Cool synth pads, atmospheric Idea : Show how we'll see more sensor systems built by people in the future
