What is Heart 2 Heart?
Heart2Heart is a DIY customisable conversation tool for dating. When users make this tool, they input all the questions they have for their date and assign different LED colours to indicate the question type (eg. raunchy, trivial, philosophical). Then, on the date, they take turns to press the button, revealing one of the questions at random.
Where can I learn how to make Heart 2 Heart?
The heart2heart.uk Website includes written instructions with accompanying video tutorials as well as schematic and realistic diagrams to make it as accessible as possible to all learning styles. Through the tutorial, I am sharing my process of creating physical computing projects, with the goal to empower more women to explore technology by seeing themselves represented in the teacher. Heart2Heart is a rebellion against the inaccessibility of technology, it’s a gift to all the women who have wanted to learn technology but have struggled due to societies sexist and misogynistic view that technology is not a medium fit for women.
