Interactive Project Sam Kramer Originally I had planned on making a wearable breathalyzer, but due to certain circumstances that was not possible. Instead I had to go with my plan B which is more a sculptural installation piece. Picture a dark room with a stone monolith in the back corner, perpendicular to that is…

Art against information
We live in the culture of digital and networked.More and more datas coming out on the internet. Advances in processor technology and capabilities enable the gathering and analysis of growing amounts of data. Important thing is how to analyzes the data. What is difference between information and data. They both use samely. But the artist…
Interactive Project Sketches
Our idea for the project is to create a jacket that reacts to the temperature and projects certain images or messages according to the temperature. We plan on using individual LEDs wired in parallel to achieve this idea.

Most Disturbing Presentation Ever: Our Tech Nightmare (“Skinner Box”) DICE 2010 Reaction
Everything that Jesse Schell mentioned is plausible. The technology to make all those things happen is not inaccessible. The idea tat everything will turn into a game is not far off either. People inherently like to win and especially if those winnings benefit them in real life more people will play. With the rapid increase…
Magic Mirror
For my project I want to make a Magic mirror, because this needs to connect to the internet, I am selecting to use a raspberry pi micro controller(which I will get from amazon). I also will need a two way mirror or a glass with a mylar that will make just ordinary glass appear two…
Light scale
<Sketch> For me, step on the scale is really stressful because it comes up with numbers. Even though just a small amount I gain, I upset about it. Also during on diet, I became lazy when I know I loss the wait. I will make a glow scale without number so when you weigh it,…
Art Against Information
This paper talks about how new media artists have used data and information in their works. It also discusses the distinction between data and information. In short, information is organized data while data itself is a raw collection of statistics to be used for analysis. Some artists agree with this distinction; for example, The Listening Post by…
Mood(y) Sweater
My idea for an interactive project is to attach a 16×2 LCD screen to the front of a sweater and program it with 5 “states” reflecting the wearers current mood. States would vary from an energetic “Hi!” to “Leave me alone”. It is often hard to tell what kind of mood someone is in, and…
Lightening Bra
Wouldn’t it be cool if you could wear a bra that lights up to a party? We will like to introduce you to the Lightening Bustier Bra. The bra will light up when its dark and to dim or turn off when there is light. A light sensor will be the light’s switch. The lights will…
Jesse Schell
Jesse Schell was starting a speech about games. He told about the companies gave us point. Also events based on technology and our data. He predict sensor will be all over the place so they will tracking and watch over us. All information will be watched and measured and judge. All the information will be…
NMA: Week 9 Art Against Information post
I thought that the article was interesting to read. It talked about how data and information was used in new media arts, and how data in art was initially meaningless until an observer gives it meaning. The works ‘The Dumpster and ‘We Feel Fine’ exemplify this because at first, it’s just a bunch of random…
NMA: Week 9 Jesse Schell post
In his video, Jesse Schell talked about the ‘Skinner Box’ and the consequences it could potentially have in the future. The concept he talked about where you play a game on the back of a cereal box and get points for beating someone’s record and eating the cereal along with ‘eye sensors’ that record the…
