A Story is Not a Tree

It is so boring to use mouses, keyboards or joysticks to play games. How about using you own voice to do so? I want to use my conference project to challenge the traditional ways of playing video games. This game…

   What does it do? This interaction is a digital mood ring. The home or start screen will be a darker background with colors moving all over the screen, similar to a lava lamp. I want this to give off…

What are you making? For my conference project, I will be making a passive webcam interactive. When first looking at the screen, the user will see a still black and white abstract pattern. This pattern will have many freeform shapes…

When you walk into Heimbold a circle underneath your feet will appear and visually connect your personal circle to the other circles (people standing) in the room. Our program will do this by displaying lines between people. The longer you…

FootPrinted is a tracking interactive that projects the paths that students take depending on what they are studying. This interactive can serve as a guide, showing what traffic is most frequented by which students. With this, students can easily find…

For my conference project, I want to create an interactive piece of art that will immerse the user in an extraordinary musical experience. There will be a song playing on the computer as the lyrics fall from the top of…

By: Sophia Koolik and Maggie Leppert In this interaction, placed on a blank wall on the bottom floor of Heimbold, is intended to connect the ideas of different students that walk through this building. Displayed on a blackboard is a…

Our work is the intimidating structure that marks the grassy area between the Sports Center and Hill House. It’s interesting to watch wary foot traffic examine the structure, because although the structure was tall enough that it was easily passable,…

This year I am taking Malcolm Turvey’s History of Film Art, and it has deeply influenced the way that I conceptualize the role of film in my life and society at large. As the course has progressed I have become…

When I worked on the initial map where I was hoping to use music that I had created over a period of time to create a landscape where life events could be read in terms of topographic data. In a…

Detailed look: This map I made was basically a idea of showing net total of migrants during the period 1980-2014. The net total of migrants is the total number of immigrants deduct the annual number of emigrants, including citizens and…

For my conference, I created a visual representation of my own network in freelance film production. I traced the outlines of Brooklyn and Manhattan to show where these films/commericals were produced, and I aligned them in chronological order (going clockwise),…

My conference project slowly seemed to design itself, as it became layered with meaning and markings over the time. I was always fairly confident that I wanted the project to be framed around the book Rebecca- the book is written…

My conference project took a few turns as I searched for written messages to map throughout the SLC Campus. I took pictures of most of the campus, and found that the places with the most graffiti were either bathroom stalls, or…

For my map, I wanted to do something that involved the way we map emotions across media. For my last project, I mapped my depression across multimedia and bodily existence, but I wanted to do something more poetic and less…

We agreed on the idea of playing with elevation and maze. Our site is Marshall Field. Since the site is surrounded by different elevations(people can sort of see the place from the back door of Heimbold) The viewers are able…

My map defines the process of determining where people are most happy on our campus. It also maps the personal, social, and intellectual fulfillment according to where people live based on the results of a survey I administered for my…

One of the main criticisms of my last draft was that because both locations were represented with the same line pattern, there didn’t seem to be any discernible difference between the quality of one place over the other. Therefore, my map…

For my conference project I wanted to go off of my previous map. I was happy with my self-portrait but finally I realized it had too much information. My idea about national identity didn’t come across as much as I…
