Slow Media Experience

Master’s candidate Jiyeon Song’s One Day Poem Pavilion is a low-fi, outdoor art installation reminiscent of a geodesic dome.

The specific arrangements of the perforations in the Pavilion reveal different poems according to the suns position. The cast shadow can be seen between 8 AM and 4PM and consist of 5 lines with each line lasting about an hour.

The time-based nature of the installation allows for an individual and unique experience.

I look forward to seeing more from Jiyeon Song, I’m hoping he brings one of the Pavilions out to San Francisco..hint ..hint. CHECK OUT the time lapse of the Pavilion and get more info of Jiyeon’s project.

Where will the future take us? With the advent of mobile touch smart phones to break the ice and the anticipation of inexpensive touch enabled tablets, the future is starting to shape up to be a world of hand gestures. At the rate that we consume content, new screen devices will eventually be in every aspect of our lives. As we now share updates on Facebook via mobile phones, PC’s and tablets, imagine a world where we will be able to share multimedia with our peers in unconventional ways like your bathroom mirror. The following is a vision of the future of screen technology.

Will any of these ideas be of good use? Or will they be simply new toys for the connected consumer. I look forward to what the future brings.

Arduino Racer

“RACER” is an interactive video game installation featuring a racing arcade cabinet, an R/C car, and a recreated cardboard (Sony) Wipeout course. The R/C car has a wireless video camera on board allowing the user to have a drivers perspective. The project took two months to prototype and the demo has been unveiled. The arcade is running off an Arduino micro-controller communicating to a R/C remote controller via a serial cable. All the engineers need to do is add a roll cage to the R/C and you would have endless uninterrupted hours of game play.
Job well done Malte Jehmlich.

Sun Boxes

Sun Boxes is an outdoor sound installation created by Boston artist Craig Colorusso. It’s comprised of twenty speakers operating independently, each powered by solar panels. There is a different loop set to play a guitar note in each box continuously. These guitar notes collectively make a Bb chord. The sound loops are different in length, and continually overlap and slowly evolve over time. Sun Boxes is a perfect composition of technology and environment to help or crazed culture slow down.
