It's great being a student, isn't it? 

Here's my final project, as written for my instructor:

Description of Semester Project

Title: Sound unit for installation "Steel Ice & Stone"

Description: For my upcoming installation, I require a self-contained, free-standing sound unit that reacts to viewers in an exhibition space by 

1. playing a sound byte stored on a chip within it and

2. sending a signal to another sound unit in a remote location within the exhibition space for it to play the sound byte contained on the chip within it.

Implementation: The unit requires three inputs, all sensors:

1. Two sense the presence of a viewer in close proximity

2. one senses a signal from another sound unit

The unit has three outputs:

1. Two outputs are speakers that play back the two sound bytes from chips on the units

2. One sends a signal to another sound unit in a remote location within the exhibition space.

In addition, the unit must:

1. turn on and off

2. have controls to modulate the sensitivity of the sensors

3. have controls to modulate the loudness of the output (amplifiers)

4. be battery operated

5. be fully modular.
