When I first stumbled upon this video, it was like having a flashback into my childhood. I use to have this toy called “Lite-Brite”. It was a box that contained a lightbulb inside and had little holes on the top. You’d place a piece of black paper over the holes and then stick little colored…

The other day I came across this excellent artist: AntiVJ. One of the mexican electronic music labels Static Discos (http://www.staticdiscos.com/) posted his new media collaboration with Murcof (http://www.murcof.com/) who has been famous for his experimental electronic and neo-classical music. That video made me research more on AntiVJ and I discovered his website as well as…

  Halloween maybe over, but it’s an interesting project using LEDs and Arduino boards to just simply put inside a pumpkin and  make a controlled lighten Jack-O-Lantern. These vids are just one of the examples of what other people have done to make their  own LED Jack-O-Lantern, youtube has a ton of them if you look them…

Venturi’s ideas of embracing architecture as the form of communication…

After reading the assignment, it let me understand the artist’s relationship to an augmented space. With increasing technological achievements as a society, the extent of accomplishing a work of art associated with technology will have no boundaries. The part within the text that got me interested was with brandscaping. With architecture becoming concentrated to commercial…

I thought that this reading was really interesting and informing. The definition of Augmented Space is the physical space overlaid with dynamically changing information. This information is likely to be in multimedia form and it it often localized for each user. Some examples of Particular Urban Spaces are environments such as shopping and entertainment areas…

By the time I made it through the half of the article I could not help but think that the way author describes the use of augmented space reminds me of medieval time Christian religion propaganda. The parallel that I had in mind was obviously with the massive transmission of commercial related information onto the…

After reading this interesting article, I realized that even though I never heard of  “augmented space,” I have experienced such spaces before. For example, the video displays and scrolling text in Times Square in New York, and the computerized water installation in Las Vegas both combine human-made space and computer technology to create an aesthetic…
