Final working prototype June 12, 2007

Susan Cohen arrived at 1am to to hear me talking about how much I hated the PCB. I worked with her for a while exploring the idea of wrapping the PCB. I still really love the idea of the wrapping a pcb and a play between soft and hard material. The material in this case was some plastic bags i found around the studio.

Basically there is water in the tube and as the wear moves the water sense this movement and light shine up and down.

To turn this into a final resolved piece there is still a lot of work to be done.

Currently working on

Currently working on stuff the relates to wearable (Going to be ANAT workshops on wearable computing during January).These ideas are still developing.

What the wearable project is:

It's an object (brooch) that gives feedback to the user about their patterns of motion over a day This feedback might be "poetic" eg the object will change color or make sounds, or fragments of spoken word might be played. Also have been thinking about it being a driven by barometer. So that it could tell the future !!! What could happen is that the text and lights could be poetic reflection of the pressures changes.

The other background project is: Drifters

Imagine walking into a space that has 3 lcd screens on the floor, on the lcd screens are images. You can't quite decide what the images are of, they become more like light sources. The images are slowly moving in fluid motion that seems to be without gravity. There is a regular rhythm to the motions that is a bit like the bodily rhythm of a breath. The space is filled with a soft spatial sound that is in sync to the rhythm in the video.

This will be shown at Inflight Gallery in Hobart in June
