We attached the LED's in series by crocheting them with low resistance yarn. Given the length of it, the LED's further to power were dimer than the closet ones. The problem was solved by connecting both ends of the series together.

Linking the LED's - testing connections

Originally we wanted to crochet the hammock with conductive and insulating yarns. But we also wanted the design to be robust enough to withstand outdoor conditions without compromising the conductivity of the yarns. We wanted to take advantage of the stretch characteristics provided by crochet as well as the easy attachment of LEDs by crocheting through the +/- pins (formed into easily identifiable triangular or circular shapes). // //

When going to the beach for a total relax vacation: do you take your computer? Do you at least take your phone? Do you look to get away from it all but have that little minor constant concern of: what if something very urgent comes about and I miss it? Well, the hammock hopes to address those concerns, giving you a subtle notice if something truly important needs your attention. Best thing? "Important" is defined by you. Important calls form important people? Important emails, weather reports, RSS feeds? You need an alarm clock to wake you up from your nap but, being outside, you don't want to worry about having your phone by you? By pairing up the affordances of the android with the connotations of a hammock, we hope to provide a getaway cocoon for the connected person.
