My idea for the project would be the creation of an interactive flower which would be sensitive to touch. I would incorporate the use of the min-sensor, including the Arduino, in order to create a flower which which lights up in accordance to sensitivity of touch.

Interactive art is a newer interactive art form that came with the rise in technology. The NeMe article was partially a general history of interactive art. It gave an idea of the guidelines of the category as well as explained how these guidelines were difficult to keep in place. This category continues to grow and…

New Media Art Category

BioStructures/ Organic Autonomy  The new category that I would create would be BioStructures/BioArt, and it would involve the use of organic materials to create art pieces.  Organic materials can be anything from trees to plants.  This is to add an element of life as the art piece would decay/change over a period of time.  The…

New Media Category

The new category I would make would be “Micro Art”. This would be art that was made by bacteria or atom via electron scanning microscope. An example of this type of artwork would be to create pictures in petri dishes. Since different bacteria have different growth patterns, colors, and designs this type of artwork can…
