Noisy Tiles
How to make a Makey-Makey noisemaking tile project:
Supplies
1 Makey Makey
2 alligator clips (helpful if they are different colors)
foam board
paper board
1 scissor/blade
aluminum foil/aluminum tape
regular tape
cardstock
computer and adaptor
Cut Hole in Foam Board
Use an exacto knife or blade to cut a large rectangle in the center of the foam board
Attach Cardboard to One Side of the Foam Board
Glue the cardboard to one side of the foam board so that the wiring that you are about to put inside of the hole will be hidden
Put Wiring on the Inside
tape tinfoil inside the carboard, then attach wiring by attaching the one end of each alligator clip to copper wiring taped to the tinfoil
Cover Wiring With Another Foam Board
Put another foam board on top to cover wiring
Attach Other Sides of the Alligator Clips to the Makey Makey
Attach the other sides of the alligator clips to the Makey Makey (make sure you have included a ground), and set up Makey Makey code so that when pressed, the "button" makes a cool sound
Decorate the "button" (Top of the Foam Board)
Decorate it however you want! It's fun to make the decorations match the sound, for example, if the sound is a bird call, draw a bird.
