The last two weeks have been really great! I’ve learned a lot, and I have found myself a new field of interest: Computational Design. The exhibition went well, and I think it is a nice way of ending a course. Tomorrow we’ll start the video scenario course, looking very much forward to that one too!
Here’s some of the pictures I took during the exhibition. You can also go directly to my photostream at Flickr.
Here’s a quick pre-release! My poster for the exhibition this afternoon.
The graphics on the poster describe the head and hand movements of people performing a typical greeting from their home country. Recorded data (using a Wii Remote) consisting of the pitch and roll values of the movements, has been normalised and divided into 400 steps each. The visualisation – formed by coloured ribbons – allows a comparison of the different greetings just by looking at the overall shape.
Coloured Ribbons - my poster based on computational design
Tomorrow is the last day of the Computational Design course. We’re ending the course with an exhibition, where we are showing our work. Basically it is going to be a mix between posters and interactive installations to try out. All based on data from a Wii Remote. This post is just going to be short: 3 pictures I took right before leaving this evening.
Preparing hangers for the posters in the exhibition room
The eMacs are almost ready for running the Processing sketches
Meanwhile Erlend is sucking out the last bit of information from Dennis’ brain
There will be more information later this weekend, when the exhibition is over and I am sober (that almost rhymes).
