loops
Loops is an installation built on an Arduino Mega 2560 board. Through a breadboard, it connects a 16x2 LCD with an I2C module, a 100k-ohm potentiometer, and a series of six LEDs arranged in a circular layout.
Descripción del proyecto
The potentiometer controls the processes' frequency. The LCD receives the command and dispatches the poem at the requested tempo. The LEDs react accordingly, completing a full loop. Communication between components happens cyclically.
The project references a poem by @lafatbordieu that encapsulates the rhythm of things and their recursiveness. In the concept of strange loops, as Douglas Hofstadter (author of Gödel, Escher, Bach: An Eternal Golden Braid) says, infinity is implicit—since what else is a loop but a way to finitely represent an endless process?
