After finalizing and submitting my thesis paper, I decided to shift my focus toward the next stage of my project, which involves creating an installation. To support this endeavor, I went ahead and purchased a batch of Blue oyster mushrooms from Amazon, and they were delivered to my doorstep just last night. In terms of experimentation, I plan to explore the use of electrodes rather than relying on Galvanic Skin Response (GSR) sensors. My objective is to investigate how the data is being collected and whether the output is comparable to or similar in nature to the data obtained through GSR methods. Additionally, I am curious to determine if the data range I receive from using electrodes matches the range of data that can be obtained through the mushrooms, providing further insight into their interaction and potential applications.

Additionally, I am working on data handling to ensure seamless sound production of the particles, but mostly, I will be testing out the sensors and attaching the amplifier to them to reduce the noise of the incoming signals.

In the next phase of my project, I will focus on enhancing the methods I use for data handling, as well as conducting early tests on the mushroom signals. This emphasis on improving these aspects is particularly important in light of the upcoming showcase, where I aim to present my findings and progress effectively.

I came across a couple of amplifiers but I would like to know if anyone has which amplifier I could use for my project?
