ars electronica (next idea 2011)

LIGHT FUN

When something shines,
What comes to mind?

With respect to time,
What thoughts do you find?

Think of day, think of night,
Think of heat, think of light.

Think of on, think of off,
Think of hard, think of soft.

Think of dark[ness], think of sheen,
Think of white, think of green.

Think of cold, think of warm,
Think of shape, think of form.

Within are the graphics created and a selection of photos taken for a motion piece submitted to the 2011 Prix ARS Electronica [THE NEXT IDEA] competition.

The aim was to use symmetry to create faces using surrounding elements. The following images were created with the spotlights, hair, clothes and shoes.

MUSIC TO MY EARS

For fun, I revisited this project to create a new identity for the American Composers Orchestra and its member programs.

graphic design, identity

Shigeru Uchida is a designer who questions the relationship between people and their environment. This piece shifts the boundaries of the page, challenging the reader's relationship with the words and margins.

THE ARTVERTISER

IMAL, Brussels hosted The Artvertiser, a workshop led by Damian Stewart and Julian Oliver. The aim of the The Artvertiser, is to replace street ads with art using their custom Billboard Intercept Units. I used Processing to create my project, Pixiliate, a composition of pixels whose colors are derived from the ad. Unfortunately, I was unable to see the result of the process due to a few demonstrations and heightened police activity.

Animations soon to follow…

mirrors

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.
