M: an arduino would allow our installation to be interactive with conductive materials, paired with more tactilely inviting
materials, such as soft textiles
B: heres a video, to give you an idea of how the people can create a circuit for interaction resulting in sound

communicate more clearly
One being an installation that is more concise and relies on touching the installation itself
M: (click) and second the form of the installation is longer, making users collaborate
