- GOOD MORNING! My name is Martin Hollywood – and this is how to Be Your Own Flying Saucer Stick with me here… [PUT WATER PIPE IN BOTTLE]
- This is a quote from Tom Robbins’, And I believe it’s apt. For I do believe that many of us are here to do just that We want to change. We want cool jobs. We want to make the work is being shown on this stage. So…
- The point being > RESCUE YOURSELF Quick side note: could someone tweet that hashtag for me, please? It’ll make sense at the end….
- Why is this relevant? For years I was an interactive developer, and of course Flash was on it’s way out. 30 SECONDS
- Rather than moving to more banners, albeit HTML5, I wanted to Get Physical! My ambition was to Level Up my skills! But how do you do that when you’re boss is happily charging you out? START PUMP!
- HOW to learn when it’s just YOU? How do you move past blinking LEDs For me, it was through EventBrite & MeetUps & HACKDAYS – Until that point I’d never even seen a real Arduino. Only read about them. After one evening I was hooked.
- Pretty soon my desk looked like this! I started playing again. I started finding excuses to build things. Kids, got any broken toys? Daddy’ll have them. 1 MINUTE!
- All this combines to this doctrine: MAKE SOMETHING
- MAKE ANYTHING! AND SHARE IT! Here are just a few of those early ‘excuses’ to create…
- Before you know it, this work will get noticed…
- What I started to see in this was that CONNECTING PEOPLE was what I was really interested in. (BUT these are the days of the Internet of Things.) So let’s make Things that talk to the internet. The idea can be intimidating, with thoughts of Back End Developers and server configuration. And WHO has time for that? 2 MINS
- Luckily there are a services out there that allow an almost code-less solution… In this next case, I’m going to show two recent examples: Pushover ‘cause I’m not an iOS Developer) but I needed PUSH notifications. & Temboo, which does all the heavy lifting for Searching Twitter, among other things. 2 MIN 15 SECONDS (or earlier)
- Desk-bound, I was looking at the photograph of my family one day, And realised that between missing them and touching the photo was the germ of the idea…
- So using a wifi Arduino YUN, Capacitive sensing and Pushover I made this:
- Remember that #rescueyourself hashtag at the beginning? Well TEMBOO will even generate ALL your code to search for that

- I’ve been Martin Hollywood THANK YOU – if you’d like to see more, please follow me & I’ll be around all day if you want to chat! UNPLUG LAPTOP!!! So Roz, how did I do? (In fact I’m here doing just that after being inspired by Ros Horner in 2013)
