For my project I want to make a Magic mirror, because this needs to connect to the internet, I am selecting to use a raspberry pi micro controller(which I will get from amazon). I also will need a two way mirror or a glass with a mylar that will make just ordinary glass appear two…

<Sketch> For me, step on the scale is really stressful because it comes up with numbers. Even though just a small amount I gain, I upset about it. Also during on diet, I became lazy when I know I loss the wait. I will make a glow scale without number so when you weigh it,…

This paper talks about how new media artists have used data and information in their works. It also discusses the distinction between data and information. In short, information is organized data while data itself is a raw collection of statistics to be used for analysis. Some artists agree with this distinction; for example, The Listening Post by…

My idea for an interactive project is to attach a 16×2 LCD screen to the front of a sweater and program it with 5 “states” reflecting the wearers current mood. States would vary from an energetic “Hi!” to “Leave me alone”. It is often hard to tell what kind of mood someone is in, and…

I thought that the article was interesting to read. It talked about how data and information was used in new media arts, and how data in art was initially meaningless until an observer gives it meaning. The works ‘The Dumpster and ‘We Feel Fine’ exemplify this because at first, it’s just a bunch of random…

In his video, Jesse Schell talked about the ‘Skinner Box’ and the consequences it could potentially have in the future. The concept he talked about where you play a game on the back of a cereal box and get points for beating someone’s record and eating the cereal along with ‘eye sensors’ that record the…

Before I start this blog post, I will like to give the definition of plausible. Plausible is a argument or statement seeming reasonable or probable. Jesse Schell is what my blog posting will be on. Jesse Schell talks about how unpopular games that only a certain group of people in society plays that game; however,…

          Jesse Schell makes really good points in his presentation about the future. He shows how sensors will grow and have a huge impact on us in the future. Currently, sensors are in few things, but he explains that they might grow and be in everything, thus we might start earning…

           The six fundamentals of art are truly important in order for the piece to be seen as true art or a master piece. The six fundamentals are balance, proximity, alignment, repetition, contrast, and space. Balance is important because you do not want the art to be off scale in some…
