p { margin-bottom: 0.1in; line-height: 120%; } Time is finite. You can use it, waste it, or lose it.  What originally took (3.942 * 10^12 minutes) will only take you 4, is it worth is? The answer is simple, but the question is hard. What is… Materials: Large piece of wood A clock arduino step…

For my final project I wanted to make a sort of 3-dimensional political cartoon. In order to do this I had my servo hooked up through processing to the Twitter server. It was there I programmed the servo to move each time somebody used Donald Trump’s campaign slogan, “Make American Great Again.” I wanted to…

This project is an evolving—yet permanent/physical—catalog that pulls content from an ephemeral form of communication: Twitter. For the work, I used Arduino,  the temperature sensor LM35, and Processing to gather tweets as source material based on the current temperature in the users environment. For example, a temperature reading of 63 degrees Fahrenheit will return tweets…

The inside of the vase contains six pairs of LEDs, that will light up when you tweet “flower” to @AnEmptyVase. The flowers will die if not tweeted “water”.

For my final project, I would like to build an Arduino Robot, “Butler Bot”. This idea came to me when I was doing my 2nd project of the semester, “Find my iPhone”. The function of this robot is to move from one place to another, with the capability of avoiding any obstructions that might be…

My purpose for this project is to create a sort of “Find my iPhone” device that is easily accessible using my Arduino. For the main sensor connection, I used an application called Amarino 2.0, which was created solely for this purpose. The overall cost of this project, considering I already have an Arduino and an…

Final Project Proposal Sophia Perez Madena Kusi LED Jacket               For this project we wanted to create a wearable piece that causes the wearer to interact with it, giving of a visual result. We wanted to produce something wearable because so far we have been using and learning about…

While I was reading, I think about the public arts. Usually, public art projects are advertisement and many of them are sculptures. But what Nato Thompson saying is public art needs communication with people who can be an audience to be successful. In the projects in New Orleans, it created after communicating with many residents….

So I guess what the author is trying to get across is how much the artists who use data aesthetics try to hide information  it is always going to leak out somehow. Theres no data without information. But is data aesthetics alone to be art? Should artists be against information produced by data? Does too…

From what I read, I learned that in this article a living form is what we make art into be. I say this because it is stated in the first page of the article stating that art is not created by humans but by the object it portrays. I say this because I always though…

This essay discusses the distinctions between data and information. It also highlights the act of organizing data. The organization is at the hands of the artist, but that data is at the hands of everyone. New media artists are handling and shaping data in creative ways. I did find the article a little hard to…

For my interactive assignment I wanted to create a wearable which would display the users current emotion with as simple user interaction as possible. Originally I intended to use an infrared remote for the user to interact with the device, but that turned into being a problem when the Touch Screen LCD Shield I bought…
