The following LED strip registers and represents the relative humidity of the soil in the potted plant within the ParkPixel

Noisy Sponges

Wii Joystick controls Cube

Sponge Field

Here we opperate on a field of lines. Manipulation of an attractor that deforms a regular field is controlled through the interaction with a sponge - because squeezing sponges is fun!

Asymmetrical Symmetry Drawing

Here we play an endless drawing game. The graphical production can be seen as a blind diagram or representation of the interaction of the players throughout the "match".

A-MAZE-ING

through arduino and firefly, we were able to create a maze based game where 1 or 2 users must control the intensity of their squeeze on a sponge in order to direct and point and draw a line through a simple maze. This game utilize the discovery, intuitive, and exploratory qualities of successful games.

The Eyewriter

Check this out! Bunch of hackers used PS3's camera to track human eye movement to help out their artist friend who is completely paralyzed. He is now able to draw with his eyes -- the end of the video shows his drawing projected on to a side of a building.

Past/ Potential Urban Interventions

I've come across plenty of videos about linking plants to networks so they can tell you when they need watering, but this project goes far beyond that.

This project from a few years ago addresses urban issues and also provides an interactive solution.
