COLOR COMPLEX

Who knew my first game concept was a good one? Entered on a whim and managed to be one of two contestants with no previous game experience who made it to the semis. (The other being Rudhraigh McGrath, a fellow Hyper.) Color Complex, a game based on color theory, is still being improved and may one day become a real game.

PAREIDOLIA

The Santralistanbul Energy Museum is filled with so much character. Hidden amongst the pulleys, turbines, generators and fuses are an abundance of human expression. The following images are a selection of pareidolia examples taken from the museum and around Taksim.

SOUP'S ON

Starbucks was the subject of a half-day challenge for our group, whose other members included Francesco Falchi, Christian Sjostrand and Linnea Lindstrom. If Starbucks were to introduce a new soup to nuts menu, how would you appeal to urban (in traditional sense), affluent, career women on the run?

MIRROR MIRROR

As I am wont to experiment with abstraction, I used the wave formula to propagate various effects while engaging the webcam as a mirror. As far as interaction is concerned, it probably wasn't the best thing to do; it would be hard for anyone who used the mirror to detect how they were effecting it. But, it was fun. However, for one of my non-abstracted mirrors, I did manage to create an RGB mirror that "prints" CMYK. The further away one moves from the webcam, the mirror's color gamut changes from RGB to CMYK.
