'''Momento'''
This will be a simple performance piece. Named after the song I will be playing. I will be playing my guitar in a hopefully pitch dark room and the observers (you guys) will be given a flash light. The closer the observers get to the performer (me) the harder it will be to hear me. I am commenting on the image taking over music so much that artist in order to be heard they need to either look extremely beautiful or outrageously shocking like lady gaga and how people tend to observe this world mainly on the visual end and don't stop hear the sound, smell the roses, taste the wine, feel the warmth of the sun, don't focus on their other senses as much as they do sight. Although I'm only really showing the sound side I hope I get my message across. I will be placing the freeduino programed with code to create a sound that varies in pitch and amps depending on the resistance, that's where the photo-resistor comes in. It will be attached on the hole of the guitar and once the observer shines there the light on it, it will create a sound the closer they you guys get to me the loader and harder to listen to my music but the clear they'll you all will be able to see me. In order to actually hear the song all the class has to do is give up the visible, turn off the light. I've been playing the guitar for 10 year and because I've spent so much time next to amps I actually feel pain from extremely high frequencies so in actuality the class will be hurting the artist, me the closer the get to me.

this is the same as the pitch follower program in the digital examples but I reclibrated it to the streamlight stingerXT a very powerful 100 dollar flash light, well back when I bought it, but the flash light broke 2 hours before the final and so I had to buy a cheap one at CVS. I changes the anologread from 0 to 1 and the out put from 8 to 9 and I messed around with the sensor reading till it was calibrated to work with the stingerXT I was able to control when it activated acording according to distance and I changed rangeso the range so it could go from very low frequencies to very hi.
