Project 4 proposal

Posted on by
  • the concept/idea for your final project:

An all-encompassing experience/ interactive installation with noise and time-tracking variables which are controlled by the location of the viewer

  • plans for implementation: what will this project require technically (and otherwise), how will you implement it?

Installation somewhere in A+D, Flagg or Noble that viewers can visit. Will require projection and motion detection equipment. I’ll work with Kathleen Durkin to figure out the motion detection equipment and once a space is secured I’ll mess around with placement and installation until all of the different components work together~will probably need to dedicate a week to this portion.

  • thoughts about process: discuss how you expect your efforts will play out over the next few weeks (e.g. are you executing a planned concept, using experimentation through/with code as process, etc?)

I’ll use my class time to work on adding to my basic code project for it to react to movement on the camera and then I’ll work outside of class experimenting with the other variables. There are going to be levels of experimentation within my planned concept.

  • considerations of audience: who would be interested in this work? who is it for?

I think this project will be interesting for anyone; it can be read into and interpreted at varying levels, but will also be engrossing for those who aren’t trying to extract a lot of meaning from it.
