Different instruments, same key: black hemp twine knotted around black pearls, dark Baltic amber from a friend, pyrite, heavy black glass beads.

Live in an hour!

Here's my #Arduino Alvik unboxing from a couple years ago: https://www.youtube.com/live/NNUt5bylkRY @alexglow@chaos.social

RE: @alexglow@chaos.social

This Thursday! Live companion bot building 🤩

I really like the Alvik – it's cute and approachable, but when I did the unboxing a couple years ago, I realized that its components and API are way more powerful than it lets on: https://www.hackster.io/glowascii/first-steps-with-the-arduino-alvik-robot-kit-f229bb#toc-approachable--yet-powerful-0

Glad to finally come back to it!

Hey, #chainmail friends: Got a reliable source for high-quality scale #maille? I've been prototyping with scales from Fire Mountain Gems, but 30-60% are unusable for jewelry – due to scratches/scuffs and the occasional discoloration. :/ Preferably: - 35.8mm x 22.2mm size option - USA - Multicolored aluminum (OR extra points for reasonably-priced titanium/niobium anodized scales!) // #Maker #SolicitedAdvice https://chaos.social/@alexglow/116014646843186181

What if you could save data to your earrings? I've been working on this #Charmware MicroSD jewelry concept for a year+, and (as with the recent LED one), am SO EXCITED to finally pull together some semi-polished prototypes!! This year, I intend to finally start selling my functional circuit board jewelry – including custom/branded options for these. Site coming soon at https://charmware.tech 👀 Current info: https://www.notion.so/alexglow/dataCharm-2ae5bc4fe79880368b71f871e3fb6ef4 // #jewelry #FashionTech #WearableTech #chainmail #privacy

New vid! #PCBs I made in 2025, part 1: LED charm ✨ https://www.instagram.com/reel/DTH1NuelDig Finally pulled together a prototype with this little board – one of my new #Charmware set, reviving the series of modular tech #jewelry bits I started back in 2018. Been dreaming of assembling these with elytra and bike-leather, and the day finally came... The board still needs some tweaks (smaller switch etc.), but with my fixed-up #KiCad workflow, those will be a snap. 😸 // #Maker #LEDs #WearableTech
