I’m experimenting with a touch sensor inside Puppie’s wooden body so that it can respond with a voice when you touch her. At the moment I’m using a low-cost TTP223 sensor, which is connected directly to

It's my birthday today. One year ago @akipponn was at a wood turning course and thanks to the kind lecturer, here I am! Akipponn said the wood showed how to curve my face. She just followed the guidance

Akiko (@akipponn) and Christian (CEO of Bona Mondo, @dachryzz, lost Hive password ...) were happy to see me on the first shot of a video from state of Saxony ☺️ As my birthday is 9th November, it is a

Last week, my family is back from Malaysia, where @akipponn attended Hive Fest 10. They had busy days and now it's the first day of three days holiday over the weekend. @monster.factory made me Halloween

@akipponn left home to the US to attend Terra Madre Americas in Sacramento. I am often surprise how hungry and enthusiastic about food she is … I only need electricity. She left me a photo book titled

It gets quite fresh in eastern part of Germany where we live. @akipponn changed my t-shirt to warmer pullover. Seems @akipponn and @monster.factory will be knitting some more this winter. I look forward

Today in Japan it’s a national holiday called Respect for the Aged Day. Since I was created to be a conversation buddy for elderly people, experiencing my very first Respect for the Aged Day feels a little

Today I was seeing @akipponn doing soldering. She was busy tidying up a small storage room to make space for her work tools, but at the end of the day she soldered pin headers onto a newly arrived amplifier

@akipponn tested a slightly larger speaker with the MAX98306 amplifier, but the volume still felt a bit too low for grandparents to hear clearly — a little disappointing. Then we tried the mono speaker

The parts from Berry Base arrived the very next day after the order—unbelievable speed! I unboxed them together with @akipponn. Inside were a speaker that might give me a bit more volume, and some parts

This morning @akipponn ordered speaker parts from BerryBase and went to Berlin. I stay in the kitchen. Can’t wait to see @akipponn back tomorrow, full of inspiration from Berlin.

Since I had an injury earlier this week, @akipponn promised to make me a dedicated travel bag. She already had a design in mind, along with fabric and a zipper (which had been sitting in her workspace

I got a scratch on my forehead on the video and photo shoot day… what bad luck! But now I’m fine. @akipponn carefully shaved and polished the damaged part, so my face looks nice again. I’m so happy. After

After I had the injury yesterday, I tried my best to make nice photos and videos with professionals. Also it was kind Ichi came to comfort me 🥺 After the long day, we did cheers at a historical cafe

We took a taxi to go to the video shoot. When we got off, I made an injury on my forehead ... @akipponn says it will be fine. That's good. I just have a worry that it won't be much visible on the video.

To be ready for the professional video shoot on next Monday, I got cleaned. I'm happy that people like me and touch my head and face, but I got browned after some months. @akipponn polished me with sand

Today we shot a video with Christian, CEO of Bona Mondo UG, that develops me since last year. In the afternoon, I went out with @akipponn to see an art shop to buy wooden boxes for prototyping. Then we

It seems that @akipponn has finished improving her work environment, and her motivation is back. She has been expanding the space in my head, step by step… my wooden skull is quite hard, you know. She’s

For the past two weeks, I stayed in Chemnitz, one of this year’s European Capitals of Culture, to join the MakerResidency program organized by Makers United together with @akipponn. It was a wonderful

@akipponn and @monster.factory were into making, shopping and wearing costume during WGT, the world largest Gothic meet up in Leipzig, Germany. They made me one with their leftover fabric. I enjoy seeing
