Week 5
Trying to decipher the Dance Poem Revolution Code
My experimentation from the previous week followed through to this week. I was really eager and hyperfixated on trying to get it to work, even though it was way beyond my capabilities and skill set. I think I would have to compromise and look for a way to generate outcomes out of it.
Trying out the code Producing words from stepping on the dance pad
When I tested out the code, it didn't work as intended as it was buggy. But I really liked the sound input when I stepped on the dance pad to generate an outcome.

I brought the dance pad to school for fun, but I was surprised to hear feedbacks that made me think. After trying out the dance pad, Jun Liang, Alda, and Zarer
said that it was hard to configure where the keys are. They said it would be better if there were a harder surface, so that there will be feedback to signify that they key has been pressed.
