Art from Code: My American Life

The background for my art piece will consist of old, black and white photographs acquired from flea markets and thrift stores around New York state. An image of the artist will be added to the photos inconspicuously. Using Processing, graphic…

Art from Code: Boolean Oceanography

For my conference project, I plan on coding sketches of a vibrant, technicolor virtual aquarium/ocean using the techniques of noise, variance, dimension, and animation that we learned in class. Using vector drawing, I have created a series of different aquatic…

Digital Tools for Artists: Scratch Lag

For my conference conference I will be recreating frames and exerts from the experimental film ‘Scratch Pad’ (1960) by American photographer and experimental filmmaker/animator Hy Hirsh. Here is currently the only available online footage from ‘Scratch Pad’ that I will…

Art from Code: Flower

My conference work for this semester is a series of processing art work about “Flower.” The idea of “Flower” first came from one of my “Random_Continue_break” homework, called “Daisy.” I would like to show different styles of flowers and gardens…

Interactive City: Please Disturb

The end result of this project is very different from what I had imagined when I first started planning this out. Initially, I believed I could create multiple environments which housed different species of animals, allowing users to experience the…

Interactive City: Find Your Mood

 Screenshot of just the background, no emotion displayed.  My final project is a mood guesser, entitled Find Your Mood. When you click on the screen it will guess your mood by asking if you feel a certain way. It will…

Interactive City: Color the Can

Finally, this is how it looks like… Whenever the user next to the computer claps or make a detectable huge sound relative to the environment, the first can on the rack will be randomly colored on top of its original…

Interactive City: Chasing Chi Chi

My final form of the conference project is an interactive game entitled Chasing Chi Chi. The player will try to click on the moving character named Chi Chi through touch pad, and chase after it. Chi Chi will bounce around…

Playable Buildings: Sculptural Map

This clip of sculptural map we watched in class inspired me the most. I want to create my own sculptural map since it is a good  way of showing interesting images and self-animating borders.  I really enjoy doing projection mapping on…

Interactive City: Hit!

So far, I learned how to use the Sonia library in Processing to monitor the level of sound input from my laptop microphone. In the gif above, I try to simulate a belt that transports shapes from left to right….

Interactive City: Black and White Euphoria

For my conference project, I planned on creating a black and white design that would change based on the user’s movement. So far, I have been able to create a sketch with motion detection. At first, I wasn’t sure how…

Interactive City: Run Away With Me

I have been working on character’s movement in the game. I am in process of using motion detection coding to make character move forward and forward only. This turned out to be the biggest hurdle I have to jump over….

Interactive City: Rise and Fall

I have been working on my project, and I created an Array for my conference project, in order to store all the information of the leaves.  An Array allows for a lot of data to be stored and retrieved in…

Interactive City: Moving Clarity

Playing with OpenCV for Processing reference and examples, I have created a program that successfully identifies the motion detected area of interest within a webcam feed, and draws to it. This was done using the the setBackgroundSubtraction() and findContours() methods in…

Interactive City: Please Disturb

Previously in my conference post I stated that the animals I am trying to produce would be a collection of animated actions. However, upon reconsidering the process of actually animating the animal sketches I would be making, it seems more…

Interactive City: Music in Me

A few changes have been made regarding my conference project “Music in Me”. For example, I changed the song choices that the user can play. Instead of playing Sweet Sun, Gooey, and Breezeblocks, that are all very similar , I am…

Interactive City: Find Your Mood

  I started working on the home screen of my digital mood ring. I added a sparkle background to give a magical feel and lava lamp like blobs moving up and down the screen. I made the blobs in photoshop and…

Interactive City: Run Away With Me

When you are stuck in same place, same cycle every day, you want to travel to new places. How can we travel and see the world, but stay where we are? For my conference project, I want to make an…

Interactive City: Please Disturb

Conference Proposal Abstract: For this interactive, users will have the option to play with three or two types of animals. As of now, I am considering using fish, ants, and penguins. Fish are not social animals that do not respond…

Interactive City: rise and fall

For my conference project, I’ve chosen to create a shadow wall interactive.  The shadow wall will be interactive in the sense that the users’ shadow can control the way that they leaves fall.  At first, the leaves will fall from…
