Focus on the TI-Innovator: Music, mathematics and the Theremin

Ian Galloway

We will use the Innovator as it was intended to be used, a feedback and control device. Coding is easy and at the elementary level only requires seven lines of code to turn the Innovator into a Theremin! But what is the relevance to mathematics and science? We will explore the issues and try not to annoy each other as we make “music”! 

Level
