I might try and grow a plant again and use "make an automatic plant waterer that uses a sensor to detect soil moisture" as a project to practice programming AND compensate for my disabled ass not being able to keep plants alive. I think all the materials can be got from AliExpress < $20. I'd like to be able to make something like the minichord one day when I'm better at programming for embedded systems. Or like a solely tongue/mouth operated digital instrument. #embedded #disability #plants
I really miss having a small classical guitar because the size made it playable even while lying on my back in bed. Being able to play an instrument when you can't physically move your body much is HUGE. I think that's a major advantage of digital instruments because you can arrange the interface based solely on ergonomics and not "does this shape and size facilitate oscillation and resonance/effective sound production at this specific pitch?" #music #disability #accessibility
