Heres another example of using motion detection in your art. It looks like this installation is using an eye following program to match the viewers eyes with the people’s in the pictures. The presentation is a little revealing, I would have at least tried to hide the camera.

Apparently, newly released evidence shows Bill Gates, Microsoft’s Founder and CEO, behind it all. While reporters have been unable to assert the veracity of this claim, the following exists for your perusal:

The arc tangent is an installed interactive piece that activates space between individuals who surround it. The movement and position of the people are what determine the drawing that are created on the piece. Depending on the space of the people that surround the piece makes up what display is featured on the piece. The…

Intel has developed a 80 core processor which can perform up to 1 trillion calculations in a second. I find it impressive that duo core is just establishing itself as a standard in current PC Intel comes up with this. Though, is probably beyond anyone’s reach at the moment I can’t wait to see what…

Pavel Hladik is currently working on the construction of a movable structure. The technology incorporates shape memory alloys which are metals that can be caused to change shape via a change in temperature. The temperature change in the design is caused by current controlled by a computer. The mechanical construction of the structure enhances the…

“Eat You Up” by Aaron Koblin is a very interesting take on interaction art. The viewer is presented with a touch screen where you are asked a series of questions about your diet. After answering these a formula based on the different acids and salt in your body is made. This is then used to…

In the information aesthetics website, they were commenting on the movie, An Inconvenient truth. They were critiquing how the graph that was primarily used to point out that the world is getting warmer, was in fact manipulated to give those alarming facts that the world is in deep climatic troubles. THE WORLD IS TOO WARM!…

Here is a program that we could all use to interpret sound from an image. This program can be manipulated, so that means it can be integrated as the platform for an installation piece. It can turn movement into music and music into imagery (and vice versa to music). The interface looks fairly simple to…

I guess I’ve been using HCI for ten years or so. The military has offered on-line courses for a long time and most of them are boring…heh. Actually, right now I can learn Spanish, Swahili, Urdu or any number of languages through on-line courses. I’m just too lazy to lern evn engrish thouw. Here also…
