This little project was inspired by old cartoon animations of a steak, so raw, that it’s still “living” enough to run away from the individual that is trying to cook it.  I cut slits into the cardboard to allow it to bend more easily in the way intended. The move meant reminded me of the cartoon steak almost instantly, but also could represent things like a rolly polly bug.

I wanted to hook this up to a potentiometer through Arduino but I was having difficulty trying to connect the circuit up correctly…
