History
-------
![Original title screen](../www/Babycastles.jpg =300x)
Scrapeboard started in 2017 as a side project of the STORE 2 exhibition at [Babycastles](https://babycastles.com), which Frank, Blake, and Clement, worked on, along with curator Mushbuh and a team of volunteers. The team received a donation of a signed skatedeck from Tony Hawk to be added to the exhibition. After the exhibition, in preparation for [MAGFest](https://super.magfest.org) 2018, Frank and Blake turned the skatedeck into a game controller with the idea of making something similar to Dance Dance Revolution, using a skatedeck instead of the player's feet for input.
The original prototype was created using the signed skatedeck, cardboard, aluminum foil, copper tape, and a [Makey Makey](https://makeymakey.com). The skatedeck was turned into a conductive device by applying copper tape to the bottom of the deck and placing it on a platform made of cardboard and layered aluminum foil. In the center of the platform was a cross section of aluminum foil, separated by bare cardboard and painter's tape from four other sections of aluminum foil outside the cross section. The four outside sections and cross section were connected to the Makey Makey with alligator clips. This served as a proof of concept for the game and was even able to be used for a few events.
