Over the weekend, I put together an early outline for the kinds of things I want to cover in my thesis paper. It needs another revision, and will undoubtedly be edited down for scope as I work. In this case, I tend to go too large in what I want to address in my work, and will probably want to focus more literally on the projects and interactions that I am building rather than writing a research paper in and of itself. There’s time for that stuff later. The outline is here.

After re-stringing the anxiety prosthesis, i worked on making an PCB design for the body component of the alienation prosthesis. I wanted something pocket sized so that you could keep it with you at all times. I figured a key chain would be a nice object to make, so I kept it pretty small. This design measures in at a little over 2 inches by 1 inch and maybe a half inch thick. It’ll use a flat lithium polymer battery to give power, and has a tiny switch so that it can work during a presentation and not be out of juice. For today, I’m working on a final debug of the electronics in the alienation prosthesis, and in the evening I’ll be moving into making a final prototype of the insecurity prosthesis.
