Sphero Investigations

                  

          In Speed, Time, and Distance, we learned that the more speed and time used, the farther sphero would go down the hall. We also learned that the farther sphero goes, the more time it will take, and the speed must be higher to reach the same point as with less speed. The commands were to change the time taken and the speed setting, and sphero was able to go faster as time and speed increased.

 In 2D Geometry, we learned that we could change sphero's colors with different percentages, and you can change angles by dividing the number of sides by 360 degrees. If you program sphero to have 100%  red and 100%  green, you can make yellow, and if you have 100% red and 100% blue, you can make a really deep purple. It was easier finding these percentages out with a past in art classes knowing what colors mixed make the right colors.

Collusion

What's the point of being tracked? What is the benefit of tracking people? Collusion shows how many websites track your activity on the internet, even though you have only directly been to a couple of websites. Adds, commercializing, and others track your activity after you have been to one website. This is a picture of collusion. Collusion is an app that you can put on a device that shows you who, and how many websites can see what you are doing on the internet. The blue dots are the websites you have directly visited, the red dots are the websites tracking your activity, and the grey dots are the other websites connected to them.

Loopy

Loopy is an amazing app, that is fun and easy to use. Loopy is an app that creates sound tracks and loops them over and over creating harmonies, and inspirational sound tracks. I love to use loopy to experiment with harmonies; what sounds better, what can I do with my own voice? I use loopy so I am able to do all of the music at once. Loopy is a fun and a great app for experienced musicians and people who just want to mess around with music. Loopy is available on any apple device on the app store.
