Week - 7 -
1. Scott Sona Snibbe - "MotionPhone" ---- http://www.snibbe.com/
Snibbe's project "MotionPhone" uses touch screen hand motion and turns those motions into abstract animations. In the clip linked it illustrates how a motion is turned into shapes and then "looped" meaning a motion from left to right will be repeated allowing for another motion to be layered over the previous one. These motions are based on the speed, angle, duration of the hand motion on the touch screen.
2. “Energy Harvesting Derive” --- http://www.xncroft.com/projects/energyshoes.html
This project is all about using “rolling sneakers” such as Heely’s to generate electricity. The electricity generated is supposedly able to generate an lcd display embedded in the shoe and also a micro computer, all of which help deliver random directions for the wearer to follow. The intention of these shoes is to give random directions in order for the wearer to get lost and explore new areas.
3. “Texmoca” --- http://sekines.net/texmoca.html
This project is a geometrical pattern generator with real smoke. Heaters are placed on the base and controlled by a host computer, one by one. As the smoke rises, the knocking of convection bubbles forms visible boundaries. Different patterns can be chosen through the use of the interactive host computer, resulting in different designs.
