Music boxes
Testing out printing little foldable music boxes with the barcodes. Fun to try and decide on the dimensions - I'd really like a spine.

Barcode experiments
Testing out a barcode scanner as a way to play albums (through Spotify in this case). Wondering if this is a way to bridge from tangibility of physical media to flexibility of digital.
Working rough player scanner. TODO: I accidentally mirror-flipped this video
Spotify IDs are kind of long to do directly so switched to sequential IDs and a lookup

More IR frame experiments
I got the projector sized to the IR touch frame. I made a desk inset for it and a wood overlay to sit on top.
The overlay makes the section non-interactive (it had to be an overlay bc the IR beams need to get from one-side to the other).

IR Screen
I ordered this IR touch screen frame not knowing what to expect and am so far pleasantly surprised. I need to map the projector to it but touch detection seems pretty good.
