So, got the solenoid working with the Arduino, and realized that was not the solenoid I was looking for. So, I've placed an order for three more different types (don't worry they are SO CHEAP). Holy crap they are a power drain, though. I learned how to wire my batteries in a series circuit so as to increase the voltage. Go me. (It is laughable how much little about electronics I actually know)
Also, had yet another productive practice session. The metronome is the best invention ever, btw. I need to start learning another intermediate/easy piece, I think. I'm also... putting Libertango to the metronome before I starting learning more measures of it. I did that a lot today, with much success, hands separate. Hands apart... not so much. Also, yesterday I went on a sheet music buying SPREE. I was liiiiike: Sheet music? YAYA! I bought three books: one for French accordion music, one for Irish Trad (written by a former teacher!), and one with 10 Astor Piazzolla tangos... Ye-ah, I need to get some easier tangos to play. There was the 'Easy Tango' book but ehhhh I didn't want dumbed down versions...
My roommate and I are going to apply for the i-Park residency. I have no idea what project we might propose but hey! it would be totally fun if we got it.
