Ask a JP just like it says down my show, but during Ask an Engineer time. So we as a lot of you know, Phil and the Moore are busy doing stuff right now and so they asked me to shift my show to this time slot. So I'll be here for a few weeks and I'm excited to mix things up a little bit. It will be a fly by the seat of your pants weird mashup show because I'm going to try to hit a few of our favorite features that we're used to from Ask an Engineer some wrap-ups and things like that as well as some of my typical content. So I hope you enjoy. Let's see. First of all, I'll say hey thanks for stopping by over in the Discord and in our YouTube chat. So if you're wondering where the chat is, if you're somewhere else like Twitch or I don't know Facebook or Twitter, if we're even sending this video there anymore, who knows these days. And you're wondering, hey where's all the chat going on? You can check our Discord. In fact, this is what it looks like right here. That's our Discord. Hey SeaGrover, Waves there, Starman, Australia, Jim Hendrickson, Jephler. Nice to see you all. Thanks everyone for hopping in. If you're trying to find that, just go to adafru.it slash discord and you'll get an instant invite. You can jump into our server and then you'll want to look for the live broadcast chat channel. There's plenty of other channels for other times of the day, but this is a good one for right now. Hey, some nice. Hey, Todd Vott. Let's see. What else? Let me get that frame out of there. Wait, there we go. Other things I want to do before I forget, I have a coupon code. So if you're looking to buy some cool stuff over in the store, over on Adafruit Store, fill up your cart with goodies and then you'll get 10% off on the way out if you use this coupon code right here. Askaba, askabia. Oh, ask a Bachelor of Arts. That's right. That's the working title of this show. I'm no engineer. Just a guy making stuff. But if you want to make your stuff and you want to get a nice little 10% off on the way out, then type this in. Type this coupon code in. I will remind you again later. That is good for all stuff. You can't use that on subscriptions and gift certificates and software, but any physical stuff you want to get, that'll be good until, let's say somewhere around midnight tonight, east coast time, maybe a little longer. So you'll have some time, especially if you catch this video a little later, maybe even tomorrow morning, who knows. So that's our coupon code for the day, askaba, askabia. What else have I got? So we just had our show and tell show. Thank you so much to Liz for hosting that and for the people who came on to show things, bunch of Adafruit people. We had Jay from Digikey who came on to show a prototype of a workshop robot. He's working working on a cute little robot to use in workshops, presumably Digikey workshops, which is really cool. Give people an opportunity to build and code a little robot, decorate it, dress it up a bit. What else we had? I have some notes. In fact, I watched it. It was a great episode. We had Jephler showing his Cutie Pie BFF NeoPixel BFF, actually. It's a new little Cutie Pie BFF, best friend forever, that has a five by five array of super teeny tiny NeoPixels on it and that just backpacks onto under your Cutie Pie and you can run little animations. He had some Matrix Rain style code going on there as well as really teeny tiny scrolling text, five by five. That's not a lot. And that is actually one of our new products that's out, just came out in the last day or two, so go check that out. Let's see. Also, we had Scott who's back working on some stuff. In fact, he was showing us some projects he was working on during his leave. He's got a smart watch, which is one that we actually have in the store. It's meant to use with JavaScript, I think. It's like a bangle, I think is its name, except he got Circuit Python running on it. He's using it as his daily driver watch with connectivity to some sort of notifications as well as telling the time.  So it can be configured to be all kinds of other things if you need it to be some IO, it can be that if you need it to be something else. It's just in the earliest stages, but he said he's got them scanning properly for I squared C, so they are alive, which is great. Let's see, Noam Pedro showed their noodle shop project, which is a new project and a new guide, which is Lego shop, Lego noodle shop, which makes me hungry just to look at it. It looks delicious. And they made the bowl of noodle soup and steam and chopsticks, neon sign, big one, using our little LED nudes. So that's a really cool project. They showed that off a bit. Sophie Wong was on with some really cool 3D printed conductive filament projects, where she is printing on non-conductive mesh and then using separate 3D printed elements that essentially sandwich around the mesh to create capacitive touch pads for wearable projects. Really cool to see that and see where she's going with that. And then lastly, Mark Gambler showed his huge 300 neopixel matrix display that is running the latest speed-ups from Jepler, from Jeff Epler, that make them super fast. He had it running at 80 frames per second, which is fantastic. So big, big array. He wants to make it even denser and get more neopixels on there. So that was cool. If you want to check that out, it's on our YouTube. So you can go back in time right now, time travel, maybe not right now, watch this show, but then later you can time travel and catch that show and tell. It'll be up on YouTube forever and ever as long as we have a YouTube. Let's see, what else? Oh, so here's one. Believe it or not, even though Lady Aida is super busy and getting ready to do some exciting stuff, she had time for a desk of Lady Aida, I believe it was just yesterday, last night, and she was working on our new feather Scorpio boards, those came in. So check this out. Lady Aida, what is this? It's Scorpio season, and that means it's time for me to give birth to a big baby microcontroller board. It's an RP2040 Scorpio. So this is a eight-channel neopixel driver. It uses PIO, that's what the Scorpio stands for. It's got the level shifters, and this is the output section. It's also got like STEMI QT and eight megabytes of flash, and we set button and all the feather stuff you know and love. So coming soon to the Aida Fruit Shop, we're going to have this ready for signups, but great for any time you want to drive like eight IOs with five volt logic. And if you like even on the back, you can change it so it's an input. So folks who want to turn this into maybe like a logic analyzer or something, you can have eight channels in all consecutive GPIOs. Yeah, that's going to be lots and lots of LEDs. Really cool for big LED projects. That's a great way to do it. Let's see what else is up. We have our jobs board. If you want to head over to jobs.adafruit.com to learn more, you'll see we've got a jobs board that is free to use, free to post up any positions you're looking to hire for. You can even post your own resume if you're looking to get hired. And these can be full-time, part-time, remote, on-location, contract gigs, freelance, whatever you want. They're all possible and they're all vetted personally by PT and Lamor. So you know they're good. Here's one that caught my eye from the latest look I had at it. It is this electrical technician at CAD Industries LLC in Franksville, Wisconsin. So that's a new one. It just was posted yesterday. Go check that out. And they're looking for a full-time electrical or electrician rather to help out with their facilities there. So a bunch of duties and responsibilities listed there, experience level and so on. So go check that out or other positions over on jobs.adafruit.com if you're looking for work. Let's see. So I've got a show that happens on Tuesdays as well. That was just yesterday. And that show is the product pick of the week show. There's the little logo. I just added it right there. And on that show, I like to take a product, sometimes a brand new one, sometimes an oldie but goodie from the archives, show you how it works, do a little bit of a demonstration, build up a little mini project of some kind, show you some code if there's code involved. And we give you an enormous 50% off discount most of the time when we're able to. Yesterday was no exception. 50% off on this one and you didn't need any coupon codes or anything. Just throw it in your cart. It's going to be cheap during the show, but it's only during the show. So you need to catch that show live. And then I like to do a little recap. So here is a one minute recap from yesterday's show. Pie Cowbell Proto for Pico. So there's a Pico with the thin socket headers on top and I've put the tiny little pin headers on the underside of my cowbell there. A connector for a servo. I've got I squared C stem of QT running out to a little OLED display here. I've added a potentiometer here using one of the analog inputs, ground and power. I've added a button and I've added a little switch here and I've also added an LED. So servo there. I've also got the angle showing up on my display, whatever angle I've turned that potentiometer to. And then I also have some little status things like when I press button and I can flip between switch side one and switch side zero there. So this is a really nice neat easy way to add on a bunch of additional circuitry and connectors to your Pico project. Pie Cowbell Proto for Pico. That's the name of it. It really is. That's really the name of it. And I'll tell you I really like this one. I have the one I was showing yesterday. I really like this style of, it reminds me of the Feather Proto boards, just the single Feather Wing Proto boards. And it's kind of perfect for me because it has those little tied pads, those sets of four pads in a row of like 13 that are tied, which is just kind of perfect for doing little simple mini circuits, breadboard style mini circuits. So I tell you I wouldn't mind seeing that in some other form factors, maybe a little cutie pie version, tiny, teeny, teeny, tiny little proto area would be kind of nice. Very useful, especially for connectors. You want to add some sort of JST connector to your project. How do you do that on the bareboard? All right, let's see what else is going on here. So much stuff. The, let's see the next thing I wanted to do. Hey, how about a little Circuit Python Parsec I've got for you today? Let me get that set up. All right, one moment here because I'm going to, I'm going to open up an app on my phone and get ready to show this. So there we go. Whoa, get out of there thing. For the Circuit Python Parsec today, I wanted to show you how you can code in Circuit Python on your phone and beam the code over to your Circuit Python device.  I have a little battery on there. You can see I have paired this device with my phone. So it shows up inside a file glider, which is an app for iOS. And it says now you can use file app to create, move, rename, delete files or directories. So I'm going to just head to the explorer. This is now showing me the contents of the microcontroller and you can see there's no wires, right? Nothing is connected. It's all magically beaming through the air. And on here, the contents include code.py. That's the main program that's running on the board. Right now I have this five NeoPixel rainbow running and all I'm going to do is adjust the code on the phone here to say I've got 10 NeoPixels. I'll hit save. That is now going to save that code.py file on the microcontroller and then after it gets that it restarts. This is reconnected. And now you can see I am running the new code. So anything that you could code in Circuit Python on your computer, you could essentially code right on your phone or another iOS device and beam it over there, which is fantastic. Really easy to get projects up and running in an educational environment or let's say you're using something at a convention or a cosplay prop or a costume element. If you want to code something on the fly, it just couldn't get easier than that. So go check that out. We have a guide for that as well as the app. And that is how you can code for your Circuit Python device using Glider. That is your Circuit Python Parsec. And yeah, a question in the chat that we had over in our Discord chat from DJ Devon 3 is only for BLE. So for the boards that we have that will run that, it's the NRF 52840 boards. I believe that's right. I've used it on the Clue as well as the Circuit Playground Bluefruit. You could probably do that on a Feather. I think we have an Itsy Bitsy NRF 52840, maybe a couple of others. And also Liz points out, actually, let me open up the Discord because there's good info here. Liz points out it's on Android. I didn't know that. Hey, how about that? Yeah, sorry, Adam Cadillac said, yeah, the Android users get no love. No, they do. It's just me. I didn't realize who is Android. I'm so sorry. So hey, how about that? Go get that for whatever kind of device you have. And let me know in the chat if anyone knows which boards it'll run on. Those are the two I've tried it on. They're both NRF 52840. I imagine at some point we should be able to do that on other boards with BLE. I just don't know what the status is of like some of the ESP32 S3. Isn't there an effort to get that BLE dup? Right now it's mostly Wi-Fi. But anyway, that is your Circuit Python parsec and some cool stuff. So thanks to Trevor and Scott and other members of the team who've worked really hard on making that so easy, the fact that we can use PyLeap and FileGlider to send whole projects as well as update code on the phone over to your device is really incredible. Oh, yeah. And Todd says it also is working on these C.Jao NRF 52840 cents. BLE cents, yeah, really cool. All right, let's see. So next up, hey, look, it's this. It's this Circuit Python logo. And usually PT and LeMore have nice animated versions, but I just grabbed some screenshots of those. But code plus community is Circuit Python. And what better way to celebrate that than to find yourself looking at that right there, which is the Python on microcontrollers newsletter. So you can go sign up for this right now. If you go to AdafruitDaily.com, we have a number of newsletters that you can sign up for Adafruit Daily for Python on microcontrollers, make this bigger here. If you take a look at this, this will come to your mailbox every week. And this has a bunch of great stories in it. You can I'll skim through this a little bit now you can pour through it later. You can get it in your inbox. You can also just go to AdafruitDaily.com and check it out. We also have a blog post about it. Some items in the news include the experimental Arduino support of MicroPython that Arduino Lab has posted. I don't know if that's experimental, but it's a lab thing. So it sounds like it's maybe a work in progress. Also some other news items that caught my eye. There was a Raspberry Beret, Raspberry Pi Beret project here, which I believe is in the MagPy magazine. So go check that out. I mentioned some of our shows and streams and Paul Cutler's Circuit Python show podcast worth checking out. This is another neat one here as people have been talking about Mastodon a lot lately. This is a project that uses a Pi Zero W wireless Pi Zero running Python and display a Mastodon media on eInk display, which is coded in MicroPython. Also, Guy Dupont created this web serving PicoTV remote app. So I think his remote control wouldn't work. So he created one using a Pi PicoW. Also there's a mention of this really cute guide from Liz here, which is the Raspberry Pi Pico Circuit Python Cow web server. And on and on and on. So loads and loads of projects always going on in the community. This is a good way to keep up with it. You can see here a lot of these come from submissions that have been found on Twitter. And if you want to get these in your mailbox, just go and sign up for the Adafruit daily Python on hardware newsletter or Python microcontroller newsletter. And that is that. So that here. That means it's time to let's talk about new guides. So we are an open source hardware company and we have, I believe it's 2771 guides in the Learn System for you to peruse and learn from and use these great open source hardware and software devices that we've got. Take a look at projects that people have built, tutorials for some of our projects and products that have been created by the team. New guides this week, we have a bunch of these small boards that have new guides, which is great. So you can see here, there is the Stemma three pin Stemma JST Stemma. Thank you for that clarification earlier, Catney. High power infrared LED emitter, which now has a guide by Liz that'll show you how to get started using this as a really high power LED infrared emitter. And I believe it has a forward and top facing LEDs so you can get a really broad coverage of LED great for things like IR blasters and TVs be gone, etc. We have a guide also by Liz on the SPI flash breakouts. So if you're looking to use a small amount of flash memory on a board rather than on an SD card an SD card reader, this will get you started on that. And that let's see that one, I think is a Stemma QT, right? No, I don't see a Stemma QT. I think that's direct. Okay, that's not a Stemma QT because it's SPI not I squared C that makes sense. We also have the Pi Cowbell proto for Pico guide from Catney. And they'll show you how to get set up with that board, get it soldered together in different configurations. I showed this yesterday, but I'll show it again today because I really like it. As I mentioned, you can mount these either way. So there's your Pico or Pico W. There is your proto board. Here's a blank one. You can solder things so that the Pico sits on top of or in the opposite opposite way. So that depending on the type of project you have, you can get those placed where you want. I also mentioned the one potential peril of this is that there is no clue as to the proper orientation. You can plug it in entirely backwards because the Pico itself has even two sets of 20 pins. So you just want to learn to line up the USB port with the I squared C port and you'll get that right. Also look at the actual pins on that so you're clear that you're not plugging in it backwards. That could be very bad. Also we have this really cool, I'm excited about this one. This is a Stem-AQT five port hub guide from Catney. It shows you how to get that set up. There's no code even for that. It's a simple passive type of arrangement. You're just rather than a long chain of I squared C devices over Stem-AQT, this allows you to have more of a spoken hub type of configuration which is really convenient for some types of projects where things are bundled up close and you don't need to create a long linear run. We also have similar to the SPI flash breakouts, we also have the Q-Spy breakout and this is also from Liz Clark. This will get you set up on creating projects using this new Q-Spy DIP breakout. And then finally there's an update to a guide. So the Adafruit Micro-Lipo and Mini-Lipo battery chargers, those have had some revisions over the years, those came a long time ago, so there's a new guide that I believe Lady Aida and Catney worked on and pardon me if I'm misattributing that. DJ Devon 3 mentions over in the chat, it's nice that the feathers can't be plugged in backwards, it's because of the uneven set of pins on them, you know when you're plugging it in right. It was always the same with the Arduino as well, like the Arduino shields, you just couldn't put them in wrong, but with symmetrical designs like the nanos and the micros and the KB2040 keyboard, QDPI, all of those, you've got to actually pay a little bit more attention so you're plugged in right. All right, and that is the new learn guide, so thanks everyone for your work on those, those are super helpful, they're always the first thing I check out when I get one of our new boards or items in the mail. Yeah, so I've got to read the pin numbers, that's the way to do it. All right, in other news, the return of the Adabox, so coming in 2023, Phil mentioned this, I believe last week or the week before, so Adabox's just didn't happen in 2022, it was not the year for it with the global supply shortage of parts, but we are on track to be getting those out to you and getting a really great batch of Adabox's, we have at least three of them lined up, I think maybe even four of them planned out, so go check out, you can go to our page, I think it's just at Adabox.com or Adafruit.com slash Adabox and sign up if there's any sign-ups available, we don't bill you until they ship, so you can sign up, you can also sign someone up as a gift, and we have been slowly but surely collecting about 5,000 each of a whole bunch of parts to be able to get that first batch out, so I'll be really excited to get my hands on the mystery item from the first one up that we'll be doing in 2023, getting some projects going and I'll be planning out some cool demonstrations and an unboxing video and event extravaganza, so go check that out if you're interested at Adafruit.com slash Adabox and go sign up. Alright, let's see, next up, I think I wanted to do a little mini gear report, so let me head over to the workbench here and let me throw on a main cam in the corner, I'll head over there. By the way, as an aside, you'll notice I was so excited about this new TV I found, this 20-inch CRT and I was showing like Glorious S video on it last week, now I've got my little teeny composite video ESP32 with this great cyber clock running on there, so kind of lowish res but it still looks good, hopefully I won't get any burn in on that, who knows. It was free, so this is just a little mini show and tell, I'm excited about this, this is a radio that was kind of the shortwave radio to beat back in the mid-80s through until they discontinued it, I think in maybe 2003 or something like that, it went on and on and on forever, this is a Sony ICF20, actually in the U.S. it was a 2010, overseas this was the 2001 D, they were basically the same model and this was my dad's, I was visiting him recently and he and I were talking about numbers stations and other interesting shortwave things that used to exist, particularly during the Cold War and he said, hey I've still got my ICF2001D, do you want it? I said heck yeah, so it works, I won't be able to probably tune much in for you right now but I'll turn it on so you can see. For some reason some of these and someone I'm sure knows who knows radio stuff by then I do on these sidebands you can get some of these stations that seem to just have a different pitch as you rotate through the sideband stations on them but this thing I've tried it out, it has the air traffic control band which is pretty cool, I was able to go outside hold the antenna up, it also has provision for external antenna and tune in some airport to aircraft traffic which is pretty interesting, has FM and then it has medium wave AM as well as a bazillion different shortwave bands you can select them here you can also directly key in stations which is really phenomenal also has as you probably heard there continuous scrolling of stations which a lot of modern radios still don't do using a digital tuner it doesn't blank them and mute them out so it's pretty nice so that's I don't have much that I can tune in like I said and I don't have much to say about it, I don't know the radio very well but I'm excited about it and of course my dad always keeps things in really great shape and has all the all the accessories and manuals and stuff with it so I'll have fun playing playing around with that if I do find anything interesting if I am able to tune something in consistently at around this time I'll bring you something next week or if anyone has any suggestions on things you can tune in in southern California around this time there's slim pickings I think on shortwave but if it's out there this one can probably pick it up I may just need to run a run an external antenna so that's a little show and tell there uh and let me turn that off and retract that little antenna there put that back here oh one one other feature by the way I got to mention that I thought was fantastic is this is you know your typical orientation of a radio but they know that you're going to set it on a desk and be struggling to tune all of this stuff up here so they put a little kickstand on the back that flips out and then you can set it at this very comfortable like 15 degree angle or 10 degree angle something like that while you're working while you're tuning stuff in which is cool one other feature actually that I thought was great is they have the pull out station guide which my dad oh pulled it all the way out some dust in there which my dad diligently filled out for some stations he was listening to so he's got uh some voice of America a bunch of different voice of America stations on there some bbc some german stations some russian stations so uh that's kind of cool little artifact there of when my dad was using that and uh let's see was there anything else I think that's the main cool stuff uh actually one other really great feature is the thing takes 3d cells it's also got a a c plug with a dc transformer on it to plug it into the wall uh memory is all stored with these I believe it's three triple a's so the the battery compartment lets you feed in three triple a's first and that's to maintain your your memory and then the rest of the functions are run by this set of 3d cells I believe I'm not certain but I believe from what I was reading some people found ways to jumper the leads when they're having to change the triple a's or the double a's so they don't lose memory I'm not sure if that's necessary if you're plugged into power I'm guessing if you're plugged into wall power you can you can keep the uh the memory going uh so that's that that's the uh little sony shortwave uh and let me switch cameras out here uh next up what I wanted to do is talk about the um continuation of the Wakanda forever project so uh last week I was showing how to create a side scrolling game inside of make code arcade in there we'll focus uh and I mentioned that I thought I wanted to add some neopixels to it so I went a little bonkers here and I've actually got two of our GST plug compatible neopixel strips these are I think the this might be 30 I think those are 30 and a half meters so 60 per meter uh and I've actually used I've made a little splitter so those are both running off of this I think it's d3 digital output there neopixel output and you can see here when they start up game starts up and then what I have it doing is these will light up purple uh but they have sort of a charge uh similar to shuri's uh blaster charge from her gauntlets and when I fire you'll see each time I fire it sends that little burst of energy rolling down those little little rolls oh I just got shot there um so I want to show you how how I set that up in code and also I'll mention for some reason I think it just may be a bug in make code arcade or at least the version I was using it might be a beta where it's fixed neopixels weren't working on pin d2 but I realized I didn't mind because I wanted to do the same thing on both of these so I've just got them both daisy changed with a little cable splice together which if you didn't know you can do that you can do that with neopixel so it makes your code easier you can send the same thing to two sets or however many strips that you can you can power in this case I've got them pretty dim so I don't run out and brown out the machine there but these could be of course unspooled and you'll see there's this one bright pixel and the rest of these are blue this white bright pixel just travels all the way down the ends there so you could wrap these around gauntlets and have a sort of interactive thing or use them like little rings in a cosplay type of thing so just a bit of a bonus to your video game since you're making it in make code arcade and you've got the pie gamer here I decided to use those little digital outputs there so let's let's jump over here and I'll show you how I set that up if you're not familiar with setting up that sort of thing in make code arcade it's actually really really fun to do and really straightforward so let me jump over here and I actually I'm gonna I'm not sure if I have that version in the in the editor so I'm gonna plug in to USB come over to the make code editor there if I can find it there it is so let's see yeah you know I'll open the one that's that's that's saved in the browser excuse me and let's see okay good yeah this looks promising is this it stop that there oh no this is the pre okay this is before I did the neopixel version uh so you know what I gotta do I gotta remember can I open that uf2 off of the board you can see I'm a little rusty with my make code so I'm gonna say import file choose file no all right let me see if I can I think if I reset this I can drag the uf2 off live demo time sorry I didn't I didn't realize I didn't have that okay so what I'm doing is I you won't see this but in the file system the pi gamer just showed up as a drive called pi gamer boot and on it is my current dot uf2 so now in make code I should be able to do uh import project import file rather choose file and there you can see all my well you can't see it actually on my desktop I have that current dot uf2 click go ahead cross fingers yay worked okay uh so what you'll see here are first of all the setup um are you trying to play stop here we go uh so what I've done is I've created a or rather I've imported an extension so in make code you'll see there's a set of extensions a little plus sign there so you can add libraries essentially that weren't by default available because you just might not need them all the time um so I added to this two libraries one is the neopixel extension and the other is the feather pinout extension and since the pi gamer is essentially a feather uh it has the feather pinout on the back uh we know the pins that we can use for things like sending neopixel data um when you then go to create a neopixel strip uh you can see here I've got this set strip to create ws2812 strip on and then I've got this drop down here of all the possible pins uh and since I imported the feather extension I get lots and lots and lots of pins you can see there's the d3 that I'm using that's that jst connector down uh at the bottom and in fact let me just add a down shooter view of the world there you go so you can see that uh so here's where I got that plugged in uh I should be able to get back into the game I just pressed reset so now I'm out of that bootloader mode and it's just running the functional code there um then in this function I'm setting up my strip brightness you can see I set it down to 10 pretty dim I'm setting all the neopixels to this uh light blue color and then I'm also using photon which if you're not familiar with make code you may be wondering what the heck is photon photon is a sort of a almost like a one-dimensional version of turtle graphics logo it is a way to send a single pixel along a line I guess that's two dimensional that's one dimensional right uh you can move move a pixel down down the line of your neopixel strip with this um so first I'm saying just set it to no no color uh then you can see when I uh let me find in the code here when I whoops when I fire luckily things are color coded I know that orange is input so I look for this orange block for when I press fire uh it will run this function besides things that are happening in the game which is all about sending sprite graphics around it also calls this function that I created called call vibranium gauntlet blast uh so if I look for that blue vibranium gauntlet blast have I lost the function it's working so it's here somewhere there it is it's small it doesn't have a lot going on it uh so here's here's all it does is it uses that photon code which by the way is all right here in the in the main light you don't even need an extension this is always in in circuit pipe or in uh make code uh there's a section called photon so you can do things like flip the direction it's going move it a certain number change the color of the pen which is the the one that's moving I think it can leave behind a new color as it goes uh set its position to somewhere and then pen up and down which is why I'd say it's similar to logo it can it can be told to uh to sort of draw with a with a trailing color or not I'm actually not doing that I've essentially just the the pen up uh going along and what I do for that blast if you if you watch here each time I press it it is uh repeating 10 times this move the photon forward by three since I have a 30 neopixel strip this just gets it down the end but quickly so I'm skipping some I'm not running uh running across every one of them which I think was a kind of cool look if you set this to um repeat by 30 and move it forward by one then we would run it along the whole strip so it's really cool it's a very uh very nice educational um tool for for teaching people how to get an effect that they like uh using logic without getting hung up on the syntax of the code so much uh usually the answer is gonna be in here somewhere so if you if you click around and get used to the basics of projects it's actually not hard to add this it just took me a few minutes uh to to add in this cool little effect so that's where this is at I'm working on a guide for this this should be out soon this will be something you could run on uh your pygamer or other arcade compatible device if you just want to play the game uh if you want to plug in neopixels to it you might need to change the code a little bit depending on how you've got those plugged in um but really fun uh Wakanda forever and I didn't didn't show the graphics too much but uh if you didn't see these last week these are great this is um let me open up the the player this is a set of graphics that marvel and microsoft put together so that you can run through a tutorial and use all of these assets uh I broke up the background asset and made it into layers so I could use this parallax scroller um but oh now I can move with my arrow so I don't get shot right away hey stop shooting me uh oh now I'm dead uh but all of those assets of shuri namor and other characters from the uh from the upcoming or actually it's out now uh black panther wakanda forever are available uh from them as well as a bunch of cool new features that that I was very excited about uh inmake code arcade uh so that's the project I'm working on and uh keep an eye peeled on the uh on the blog uh for when that learn guide comes out should be probably the beginning of next week end of this week uh let's see by the way I wanted to say uh I will do some questions uh at the end so if anyone wants to put questions in the chat I will uh I will try to answer what I can there um and oh yeah so I said I would do a little bit of new new news so let's take a look uh at some new products in the store I don't have uh have them in front of me so it won't be a cool demo uh look look for those in the future but uh for right now uh I'm just going to go where you could go which is the webpage and mention we've got that five by five new pixel bff uh new pixel grid bff that jeff epler uh did the cool demo for in fact if we if we do click on this uh I think there's a little animated demo in the uh is that going to run you know it it might not run or it might not be updated yet um but go check that out it should be updated soon it just might also not play well with my streaming setup here um we've also got this uh in the continuing revisions on the displays uh lemur had to do some revisions on displays as we got some different parts and while she was in there she added the ispy connector so this one looks really cool this is this 240 by 240 tft display uh it is 1.54 inches and it now has the ispy connector on it so if you want a nice easy way to connect up to your microcontroller uh if you don't want to solder to all these bazillion pins here you can use the little flat ribbon cables uh ispy ribbon cables and then for now you can use we have a little breakout so at the other end we have a little breakout board that you connect that into and then um solder it to your project into a perma proto run wires to a breadboard in the future we will start having microcontrollers that have the ispy connector on them to be so nice so easy to uh to plug in your displays and those carry by the way the the cable connection the ispy connection carries not only the display um lines but also the uh sd card uh data can run over that as well and i believe there's i squared c as well maybe i'm making that up but i think there is uh let's see what else we have new uh we have the bff add-on uh for neopixels so this is not neopixels right on the bff like the one that that jeff showed but this is a plug-in three s three jst connector for running neopixel strips uh right off of your cutie pie similar to what i was showing here uh with my neopixel strips on the pie gamer so that's just a nice little connector there oh gosh i just ripped it all entirely don't do it that way nice demo yeah be a little gentler i'll have to fit this back in there don't tug it by the the cable that was terrible forget that happened oh my god that thing's really stuck in there i don't know what i did um that's funny so maybe don't get that i don't know who knows uh let me turn this off let's see what else we've got uh this one was new last week actually i think we showed this was just a 2.2 inch uh 18-bit color tft lcd also with the ispy connector on it so those are the new ones there uh in the chat so that's it for new products including ones that i manhandle and tear apart uh over in the chat uh a nice idea from Todd bot there which is with all the cutie pie bffs we've got the grid the battery uh the neopixel jst you could make a really chunky fat sandwich of of cutie pie stuff if you got the right uh the right pins for it um in fact i think i was talking earlier about prototyping area it doesn't the battery one i think the battery one actually has a little prototyping area on it because i used that with my little clock project that's back there all right uh let's see what else is happening i think that is all that i wanted to show uh hopefully i haven't missed anything major but let me know if you've got any questions in the chat um i'm gonna take a look over here and see uh also check the youtube well so i think there was some uh discussion of shortwave radios when i was showing that before that i couldn't take a look at so let me uh let me back out my history here uh yeah there's a shoulder strap uh dj devin asked there is i i think um my dad has it still i grabbed the wrong one all the stuff wasn't together but there was a for that sony radio there was a nice little shoulder strap to make it sudo portable um mark gambler i live almost next to the airport can pick up frequencies really clearly including baggage handling that's what i heard the other day in fact i think it was the baggage baggage handling that was uh who was talking on there yeah sdr uh definitely that's that's uh the way to go i think these days of sdr in fact i found a online web sdr you can go and tune a software to find radio from your web browser which is wild uh you don't even need your your own local one plugged in australian number stations are still a thing yeah they still exist right uh there's there's not too many but i'm dying to to listen in on some for some reason that's still fascinating all right thadba asks if the ate a box is a diy lars i can't answer that i don't have any top secrets someone asked if i had oh australia wants to know if the cutie cutie boy pie project would be a top secret maybe but don't ask yeah i can't top last week's top secret so i won't try all right uh evil david cana evil david cana asked if someone could post the link where to sign up for the um ate a fruit daily i'll do that right now in fact i'll that was over in the youtube chat and that is ate a fruit daily dot com i'll post it there and then i'll show you it in case you're curious that's what it looks like when you get to it for daily dot com you can go ahead and pick any of these newsletters that you'd like to have sent to you give us your email address we promise to not spam you or do awful things or sell it to anybody it is safe with us you'll only get the newsletter um and as it says here it's not connected to your shopping account and experience so it in fact you could use a a burner email address a totally different one and duck duck uh go what's that site duck duck go email address anything like that will work um let's see question here from chuck looking for a way to have a standalone programmer and tester for microcontrollers any suggestions i'm going to have that one be be one for the chat if anyone has suggestions for a standalone programmer and tester um i don't know i mean i've i've used things like a microcontroller like a arduino as the programmer with ftdi cable to another um arduino before i'm not sure if that's the the question you're asking let's see yeah i'll give some time in the chat for anyone who has uh answers to that wb8 nbs says that sony is a dream i have a trans oceanic 3000 that takes nine d cells whoo nine that's a new record i remember boomboxes that took eight but nine is something else uh yeah so todd bot mentions this if you're not familiar uh i'll bring up the chat this court chat here if you're not familiar with numbers stations uh you may have heard them before people like to sample them in songs too but they are usually a fairly impassive voice speaking numbers it's a person not a robot and uh these i think the very first versions of these actually started during world war one uh but they were particularly active during the cold war and it is a voice that is reading numbers allowed sometimes in russian sometimes in english sometimes in spanish and the idea is that a government espionage agent in the field in a foreign country can tune in at a certain prescribed time write down the numbers and then decode that with a one-time key so it's a way of sending out a message that really can't be traced because you can't really trace who's receiving it everyone's receiving it um and without the the one-time key it's basically impossible to to crack so that's what the numbers stations were about um i think that's fairly conclusive of course no one's ever admitted to it but it's uh there've been arrests made based on numbers station uh uh activities i think in cuba in the 80s at least or maybe in the 90s um go look it up though it's a fascinating subject uh todd bot says depends on the microcontroller but a raspberry pi is a good general solution uh for for programming oh right yeah i think we've got some guides in fact on making a programmer sorry now i'm understanding your question better yeah so if you're trying to um let's say program the firmware onto a bunch of the same microcontroller we we use a raspberry pi actually we're we're converting that over uh it was teensies in the past i think now rp2040s um yeah open ocd with rpi it's an option so discuss that also if you're wondering our discord is a great place to ask those kinds of questions not only in the live broadcast chat but you can go to the help with projects uh or some of the other channels and ask that type of stuff all right well this has been uh the show so thanks for tuning in i know it was a um fly by the seat of your pants sort of weird amalgamation of ask an engineer and j p's workshop jump horse workshop uh but i hope it worked for you uh i will uh continue to refine it let me know if you have any things that you'd like to see more of less of different of and uh i will i'll be back uh next week at this time next wednesday um in the meantime tune into some of our other shows we have i believe a so there won't be anything tomorrow i'm not doing a second copy of my workshop show tomorrow um so this this show will be happening on wednesdays for the for the foreseeable future uh on friday i believe we have a deep dive with tim foamy guy uh and scott may be starting to get get some of those going again too which would be pretty cool uh then starting again on tuesday i'll have my product picks show wednesday we'll have uh 3d hangouts with the ruiz bros um and then show and tell and then this so that's going to do it for today thanks everyone for tuning in for a to fruit industries i'm john park and this is your moment of zeno


Item number SCP-738 Object Class Keter Special Containment Procedures SCP-738 is to be kept in three linked sealed chambers with armed guards and a remote detonation system at all times, as well as constant full audio-visual surveillance. Due to the variety and strength of observed interactions with SCP-738 and the unknown limits of SCP-738, the following procedures are to be strictly followed. When SCP-738 is not in use, its components must be kept one to each chamber. Mechanical means built into the containment area are to be used to assemble and disassemble SCP-738. Should mechanical assembly means fail, then testing is to be cancelled until an engineer fitted with an explosive collar can be sent in to repair the systems. Set engineer is to be detonated upon any attempt to interact with any component of SCP-738. When mechanical disassembly fail, preset shape charges shall be used to disassemble SCP-738. The system should then be repaired and reset by a single engineer fitted with an explosive collar. All Class D personnel used to test the device must be mildly mentally retarded or of comparably impaired cognitive function, and must be fitted with an explosive collar. This is in order to prevent them from learning too much about SCP-738 and possibly using SCP-738 in a way that is detrimental to the Foundation. Class D personnel with IQs over 60 and all other personnel are not allowed into the room containing SCP-738. Class D personnel are allowed into the room containing SCP-738 for experimentation only and are to be provided with continued instruction by research personnel. Description SCP-738 consists of three components. A match set of mahogany furniture including one desk currently labeled SCP-738-1, one straight-back chair currently labeled SCP-738-2, and one ornate throne-styled office chair labeled SCP-738-3, all with brass embellishments and royal purple velvet padding. The effect begins when a sentient entity sits in SCP-738-2 in front of SCP-738-1 with SCP-738-3 resting behind SCP-738-2. Cameras show SCP-738-3 moving during the effect, frequently leading back into a relaxed state as well as moving closer to or further away from SCP-738-2. Occasionally SCP-738-3 is moved in front of SCP-738-2. Furthermore, cameras show papers and folders containing papers leaving SCP-738-3's drawers. The papers are made of parchment, a quill, pen, and a bottle of ink emerge from the long drawer. The pen will write on the parchment. Audio recorders record a distorted voice speaking. This voice will make offers and promises, attempting to tempt the occupant of SCP-738-2. Everything has been extracted from the spoken voice. If in this time the entity sitting at SCP-738-2 makes a request, then the tempting and offers will cease. There will be a pause and a price will be stated. This can be bargained with, however, the voice will insist on other prices of equal value. Occasionally when a request is made, the voice will respond by telling the requester that they do not want the object enough, or that they are obviously requesting the object for someone else to get around paying full price, in which case the request is not fulfilled. This occurs most frequently for requests that can affect other people or can transfer possession. Accepting the deal causes the agreed upon wish or command to be fulfilled to the letter, but not passed the letter. Furthermore, it will cause the occurrences stated in the price to be paid. The entity has actively stated that the occurrences in the price are intended to cause an amount of emotional and or physical pain equal to the amount that the requester desires what they request. How parity is calculated is at present unknown. The price has been stated to be independent of any pain caused by fulfilling the request. See the test log for examples of prices paid and requests made. As a final note, personnel in the chair have reported seeing the entity sitting at SCP-738-3. However, all attempts to observe this entity were not seen and SCP-738-2 have failed, and further descriptions of the entity are inconsistent between sessions, even with multiple sessions with the same person. When asked about this, the entity claims to be the same entity each time. Some frequent descriptions of the entity include subductive and charming. Sessions with the same person that are close in time report similar or identical entity appearances. Sessions with different people that are close in time report different entity's appearances. Descriptions of the voice do not match the voice recorded on the equipment. Addendum 738-1 History SCP-738 was recovered from the office of ██████ a Catholic cardinal after his death on ██████. He had received it as a gift from the Pope for extraordinary services from the Vatican Archives. The Foundation became aware of SCP-738 after ████ with ██████ dead and his will contested in the aftermath of the event, Foundation personnel acquired the desk. Foundation agents in the Vatican reported recovering some of the documents surrounding SCP-738. Addendum 738-2 Test Results Test 1. Researchers sits in SCP-738-2 and waits. Results. Researchers report several attempts made to coerce him into a deal with deals involving love of the women he wants, an object that would make him a well-respected researcher, and the granting of O5 status. Stardal researcher leaves SCP-738-2, leaves room. Recordings follow statements provided. Research reports disappearance of the entity, followed by return of pen, paper, and folders to a drawer. Using cameras, speed of object return clocked at over 120 meters per second. Researchers report seeing a man in a red and gold business suit. Test 2. Personnel D ██████ sat on SCP-738-2, analysis performed upon papers and documents. Results. Spectral analysis has confirmed that the parchment is human skin. The feather and the quill pin comes from the unidentified bird. Subject offered freedom. It is told that the price is the death of its best friend. D ██████ laughed and agreed, then vanished. D ██████ was recaptured five hours later, documents written in English. D ██████ involved in test reports seeing a beautiful and seductive woman. Test 3. Personnel D ██████, a non-native English speaker, sits in SCP-738-2. Results. Papers written in D ██████ native language, as is spoken in communication. D ██████ offered the power to never be held in a cell again. Prices stated to be the memories of D ██████ mother. D ██████ accepts offer. After acceptance ██████ resulting in the death of 12 guards and D ██████. Test 4.  Results. The language on an apartment appeared to be crude pictogram representing the deal, though some words in English were represented in the apartment. In general, the English was unrelated to the picture they were under, and frequently insult D ██████ intelligence, and state the entity's uncertain how much of this D ██████ understands. D ██████ was offered a sloppy joe. Price was stated to be Mopsie, a toy that D ██████ had been allowed to smuggle into the foundation. D ██████ accepted, and food was materialized upon the desk along with antique silverware, fine china plate, and crystal glass sippy cup with wine-colored grape juice. D ██████ shows great distress when upon discovering that Mopsie was missing after finishing meal. D ██████ reports seeing a large pink rabbit. After deal was complete and D ██████ left chair, recorders picked up a sigh. Voice printed sigh does not match D ██████ voice. Test for follow-up. D ██████ issued toy exactly identical to Mopsie. Result. As soon as D ██████ named the toy Mopsie, it vanished. D ██████ showed great emotional distress. Test 5. Destruction testing. Result. Explosive fire, gunshot, mechanical wood chipper fail. Direct attack upon desk with actually the single gash, with depth of 3mm and results in ██████ as well as depth of attacking personnel. Gash remains in desk. Video log shows gash healing at a rate of 1 µm per day. Test 6. Researcher sits in SCP-738-2 asks, what are you? Result. Entity. Taking the appearance of a large snake states, I'm sorry, it's against policy to divulge personal details, but may I interest you in ██████? Researcher stood from chair, shaking and ending the session. Researcher was then placed in mental institution 5 awaiting review due to information revealed by offer. Test 7. Held in Katz, Esquire, senior counsel with the Foundation's legal department. Result. At commencement of test, Mr. Katz presented the entity with a notarized Apostle affidavit stating that he was participating in the test on its own behalf and not as agent for the Foundation. Approximately 41 hours after the commencement of the test, Mr. Katz lapsed into unconsciousness due to exhaustion. Mr. Katz described the appearance of the entity as identical to his first year contracts professor from law school, but he declined to describe the nature of the offer that had been made. He reported that just prior to his blacking out, he had been in the midst of negotiating a precise technical definition of the word «shall». Katz stated that the current working draft of the agreement that he and the entity had been drafting was at least 900 pages long at that moment, exclusive of exhibits and schedules, and that he regretted not keeping a copy for his form file. Our red leather envelope, smelling a sulfur, was found in Mr. Katz's person, which contained a handwritten note reading, «Please come back any time, I haven't had so much fun in years». Mr. Katz has requested reassignment. Remaining tests require level 4 clearance or higher to view until declassification complete. Addendum 738-3 Notes In recent testing, offers have been made directly to the researchers who were telling the subject what to do. Sensation of all testing. O5.


Item number SCP-860 Object Class Safe Special Containment Procedures SCP-860 has been contained in a small wooden box in a vaulted sector. By itself the object is inert and no further containment procedures are needed. Description SCP-860 is a dark blue key of unremarkable shape, as seemingly random intervals of time a series of numbers later found to be UTM coordinates will appear on the key's blade. When the time SCP-860 is spent under containment, the numbers have changed three times given to coordinates for ██████, Germany, ██████, England, and Site. SCP-860 can fit in any door lock that requires a key located in the area of the given coordinates, and will function identically to the correct key for that lock. SCP-860 only works in door locks, and only if they are attached to a door, it will not work on any other type of locking device. When SCP-860 is used to unlock and open a door, the door does not lead to its usual destination. Instead it opens to a small forest clearing centered on an 80 cm wide footpath, designated SCP-860-1. Every observation of this grove has noted it did presence of blue-colored mist. As soon as any person enters SCP-860-1 the door automatically closes. From inside SCP-860-1 the door appears attached to an infinite concrete wall, and is locked. No attempts to break the door from outside, but personnel inside SCP-860-1 have been successful. Attempts to break the door from inside SCP-860-1 resulted in ██████'s seat document 860-3 for more details. The trail inside SCP-860-1 usually leads to another door attached to another infinite concrete wall. This second door leads to the normal destination room of a door on which SCP-860 is used. A number of other anomalous events have been reported by personnel conducting exploration of SCP-860-1. These are explained in more detail in documents 860-1 through 860-4. Following the events of exploration 4 described in document 860-4, only level 4 personnel may perform tests on SCP-860. Incident 860-███ on ██████ days after exploration 4, SCP-860 was found on Dr. ████'s office table, meters from its containment unit. The item's containment locker had not been opened. Video surveillance from ██████ shows the key suddenly materializing on top of the table. It is currently unknown how or why SCP-860 was moved. The incident had a profound effect on Dr. ████. Psychiatric evaluation is recommended. Addendum, below are the transcripts for exploration 1 through 4. Level 2 personnel and above may access documents 860-1 and 2. Option level 4 personnel and above may access document 860-3 and 860-4. Document 860-1 and 2. Below are the transcripts of exploration 1 and 2 in the SCP-860-1. Exploration 1 realized on ████. Exploration 2 realized on ████. Exploration 1. D-3456 is a 31-year-old Caucasian male-average build. Psychological background is unremarkable. Stead designation is a result of a demotion due to ████. D-3456 is equipped with an LED flashlight, a handheld camcorder fitted with a transmission stream, and an audio headset for communication with Dr. ████ at control. D-3456 inserts SCP-860 in the door leading to an abandoned house on ████ Street ████, Germany. He turns the key and opens the door revealing SCP-860-1, D-3456 staggers. Dr. ████, please proceed. D-3456 hesitates and passes through the door. After he takes two steps, a loud bang is heard. D-3456 turns quickly. The door is closed and attached to a large concrete wall. D-3456 moves towards it and attempts to turn the knob. This ████ is locked.  Please follow the trail, D-3456. The exit should be on the other side. D-3456 sighs and turns around and walks down the trail. After walking 64 meters, D-3456 stops. Did you hear that? No sound came through the audio feed.  Came from the woods, seen far away. A howl? Like a wolf? Not exactly. Sounded weird, distorted. Please proceed down the trail. D-3456 starts walking again, with increased speed. After 43 meters, the mist starts to thicken and acquire a deeper shade of blue. It's starting to get really hard to see here. This ████ flashlight isn't… D-3456 suddenly starts to turn around. Did you hear it now? Nothing came from the audio feed, D-3456. What did you hear? Same thing as before. Closer. How the ████ did you not hear it? It was… Please continue to follow the trail, D-3456. No! You don't get it! It… A loud roar can be heard coming from D-3456's left. D-3456 screams and starts running down the trail. Every 10 seconds, the sound of steps coming from behind D-3456 can be heard, starting off distant and increasing in volume until they appear to be less than one meter from D-3456, at which point they stop. After running 68 more meters, D-3456 reaches a large concrete wall with a door in it. D-3456 kicks the door open, revealing the main hall of the abandoned house. D-3456 enters, turns around and closes the door. Two minutes later he opens the door again, revealing ████ Street. D-3456 shows extreme paranoia for the following weeks, claiming to hear the same how in the distance when alone. Affects him the fate after ████ weeks. D-3456 now behaves normally. Close analysis of the audio feed revealed that a very low sound can be heard the second time D-3456 stopped. The sound file contained in the amplified sound can be found here. Exploration 2 D-5674 is a 27-year-old South Asian female with a below-average physical fitness. Psychological background indicates extreme xenophobia. Subject has extensive record of ████. D-5674 is equipped with an LED flashlight. A handheld camcorder fitted with a transmission stream and an audio headset for communication with Dr. ████ at control. D-5674 inserts SCP-860 in the door leading to an abandoned house on ████ Street, ████, Germany. She turns the key and opens the door, revealing SCP-860-1. D-5674 passes through the door. After she takes two steps, a loud bang is heard. D-5674 turns. The door is closed and attached to a large concrete wall. Explicitive redacted. Follow the trail, D-5674. The X is on the other side. D-5674 turns around and walks down the trail. After 94 meters, D-5674 stops and turns to the woods. Did you- did you see that? What? Did you see those? Those? Yes. D-5674 is silent. What did you see? D-5674 does not respond. 12 seconds later she resumes walking down the trail. D-5674, please report what you saw. We need- It was nothing. Mist must have tricked me. D-5674 walked for 10 more meters before stopping again. D-5674, why did you stop? Silence. Can't- can't you hear it? What? It's calling me. I have to. I have to go. D-5674, you can't. D-5674 removes the headset and puts the camera on the ground facing the trees. She proceeds to walk off the trail into the woods until she disappears from sight. Nothing more happens until the camera's batteries run down. Addendum, the door leading to the abandoned house remain closed. Attempts to remove the key from the lock failed, as did all attempts to open or break the door. Seven months after the incident, the door suddenly opened and discharged a very old Asian woman. When questioned she affirmed herself to be D-5674. She refused to elaborate on what happened after she left the camera on the ground even under extreme pressure. Subject was found to be much calmer and more polite than before Exploration II, and apart from talking about what occurred to her inside SCP-860-1, followed every order issued to her without complaints. Two weeks later, she died in her sleep of natural causes. Document 860-3 and 4. Below are the transcripts for Exploration III and IV into SCP-860-1. Exploration III realized on ██, Exploration IV realized on ██, Exploration III. D-2562 is a 35-year-old Caucasian male of strong build. Psychological background indicates ██. Subject shows a record of violent behavior under pressure and is responsible for the murder of ██ people. D-2562 is equipped with a LED flashlight, a handheld camcorder fitted with a transmission stream, an audio headset for communication with Dr. ██ at control, and a fire axe. D-2562 inserts SCP-860 into the door leading to the house of Mr. ██ located on ██ Street, England. He turns the key and opens the door revealing SCP-860-1. D-2562 hesitates and proceeds through the door. After he takes two steps, a loud bang is heard. D-2562 turns, the door is closed and attached to a large concrete wall. Now what? Please use the axe provided to try to destroy the door. Uh-huh, you sure? Please do as instructed. D-2562 places the camera on the ground facing himself in the wall and proceeds to hit the door with the axe. He hits the door four times before quickly turning around. Did you hear that? No sound came through the audio feed. It was a ██ loud roar, man. How could you not? Please calm down and proceed with your task. D-2562 keeps looking at the woods. D-2562, please remember our agreement if you don't follow our instructions. Yeah, I know that. It's just… Okay, okay. No problem. D-2562 resumes the attempts at destroying the door.  Seemly encouraged by this, D-2562 proceeds to hit the door harder. After nine blows, an extremely loud roar is heard. D-2562 screams and starts swinging the axe in the direction of the camera.  D-2562 charges in ██. The sounds of ██ could be heard for ██ hours after that, long after the camera batteries ran out, and showed no signs of stopping. Doctor ██ decided to cut the audio feed after ██ hours. Exploration ██, ██, from now on referred to as Subject-1, with a 41-year-old African-American male of above-average build. Subject-1 is equipped with an LED flashlight, a handheld camcorder fitted with a transmission stream, and an audio headset set for communication with Dr. ██ at control. Subject-1 inserts SCP-860 into the door, leading to an empty room in sight. He turns the key and opens the door, revealing SCP-860-1. Subject-1 proceeds through the door after he takes two steps, allowing bang is heard. The door just closed, no? Yes, please follow the trail, the exit will be on the other side. Subject-1 proceeds to walk down the trail. The grove shows notable differences from previous explorations. The mist has acquired a slight red hue, and incomprehensible murmurs are heard through the audio feed, although Subject-1 seems unaware of them. Subject walks for 123 meters. Place seems different from what you described, Doc. It's given me the… wait… the hell? Subject stops. In front of him, the trail forks in the two paths, one of which is made of cobblestones. Uh, Doc? Which… which way should I go? This ur… this is new. We haven't seen it manifest like this before. Well, I guess I'll… oh sh… Subject-1 turns around. The trail just appeared. Thousands of trees have replaced it. The mist suddenly turns, and the murmurs increase in volume. Doc, what the f**k is going on in here? What is this noise? Please calm down and proceed down the cobblestone trail. I'm not a f**king guinea pig, Doc. Just because I volunteered, I don't… oh my god. What? Respond. What do you see? Subject-1 starts screaming and proceeds to run through the cobblestone path. The murmur suddenly sees, and only Subject-1 screams can be heard. He runs 143 meters before the camera is suddenly thrown into the ground. Subject-1 screams cease. The camera is turned towards the woods. The mist is now thick enough to block sight completely beyond two meters. Do you hear me? Oh… god. There is no further response from Subject-1. Three seconds before the camera's battery ran out, a very low noise was heard. Analyzes of the video feed showed two glowing yellow spheres for one frame in the last second of the video. The sound was later amplified and can be heard here. As a suggestion of Dr. ██████, the sound was reversed. The modified fowl can be heard here.
