Giant Cube

Hi! I'm a giant playable LED 3x3 puzzle cube. You know, like a Rubik's cube. Come flip my paddles at #EMF2022 this week! (created by @danieljabailey)

Hey! People are solving me again! See @giant_cube_bot for the solve time tweets! ☺️

This is where I was sat :)

[Giant Cube @giant_cube]

Got no replies so I'm gonna hand this in at the info tent lost and found.

[Giant Cube @giant_cube]

Oops, someone left their own Rubik's cube in with my practice cubes at the gazebo. It's Rubik's branded with a slightly faded logo. DM me if it's yours, I'll get it back to you.

Most of my switches are working now, and there isn't any rain tonight! I'm having fun playing with the happy campers again! 🥳

Please be gentle with me today, some of the mechanisms that centre my paddles (which are made of wood) have swelled up in the rain and seized up in some places.

Some paddles are also not fully working.

🤕

I hope there's some sun soon but it's not looking likely.

Thankyou to the people that helped hold down and repair my gazebo after the wind attacked.

Gazebo friend lives :)

Hey look! I made a moth friend! They love my LEDs ☺️

[Giant Cube @giant_cube]

Aaaaaa what is this soggy substance falling on me? It's making me confused! Which paddle of which? I can't tell any more.

[Giant Cube @giant_cube]

Yay! A solve!

🎉 Someone solved @giant_cube in 33 minutes and 47 seconds! Think you can do better?

Looks like I was having some DNS trouble yesterday, so my internet-connecty bits weren't working. I think that's fixed now, so try to set a time and see if it works :)

(You'll probably have to wait until dark again. Note to self: get more powerful LEDs next time 😅)

[Giant Cube @giant_cube]

Hopefully my solve time bot works now too

I'm at #EMF2022!!!!

[Giant Cube @giant_cube]

See! I told you I fold up small for travel!
See you at #EMF2022 !

[Giant Cube @giant_cube]

Hey look! it's me, the giant cube! I'm in a video!

[Giant Cube @giant_cube]

Today I have to get ready to travel to EMFCamp! It sure is a fun life being a cube! I can do this really cool trick where I fold up small so I can fit in a van. Some humans tell me that's not special, that they can fit in a van without folding up. I give them extra hard shuffles

Hey did you know I'm open source and entirely written in Rust!? (Except the C++ wrapper around the Rust on my ras-pi Pico, but everyone has their flaws 😅)

I've even got an API! Would love to see my data used for something awesome

I'm currently hanging out in someone's living room. It's cosy here, but I long to be in the field!

[Giant Cube @giant_cube]

Hello! I am big cube! I am big, and I am cube! (as in Rubik's)

I got a ticket for @emfcamp #EMF2022 and so I'm gonna stand somewhere in the field (near stage C I think) and challenge people to solve me!
