Mid term projects proposals.

  • Please give a textual description of what you want to do for midterm. A link to a blog that takes comments will be useful for getting feedback, also feel free to link to any sketch you started , or anything that you find inspirational or related :
  • Paul Rothman - I plan on creating an interactive signal generator and oscilloscope simulator. I will have a a physical controller that allows the user to control the frequency and amplitude of the Sine wave. I also want the screen knobs to move and reflect the physical position of the hardware controller. If I have time, I might add another waveform. here is a sketch
  • Ebonie Smith - My midterm project will incorporate the use of text, audio, and images in the creation of an interactive music video. The video will display a 5x5 matrix array of album cover images superimposed upon the lyrics of an original musical work. As the audio plays, the written text will appear in random positions through the collage of images. The boldness and size of the print will depend upon the x and y positions of the user’s mouse.

  • Peter Horvath - A real-time analysis of live, environmental data (i.e., air quality index, carbon, oxygen, wind, temperature, etc). Employing a tautological dissection of XML feeds from weather.gov, airnow.gov, and dec.ny.gov, the purpose is to find coherent ways in visualizing patterns; thereby understanding the inherent, emergent properties within the data.
  • Lee-Sean Huang http://leesean.net/2008/10/15/icm-midterm-proposal/
  • Sonaar Luthra - I'm planning a video interaction that tries to break the fourth wall by blurring the lines between fiction and non-fiction. Basically a decoy interaction/video mirror will set up a premise where the viewer accepts the combination of a video mirror and activity superimposed on the video feed - as the interaction attracts attention to a corner of the screen, in another corner the viewer will see footage of someone approaching from behind in the corner of his/her eye. The result will dramatize the process whereby we place more trust upon technological extensions of our senses than on our own senses, and anxiety such a state of affairs can produce in a subject rendered spectator.
  • Tim Haynes - I have been playing around with an idea of having a waterfall made with arrays of lines, and then having points be made when the lines reach the bottom of the waterfall to simulate mist. I am not sure about the interactive part yet, but I have been thinking about having a spotlight and having the spotlight change colors depending on where it is pointed in the waterfall. I have also thought about having the setting change from day to night depending on the horizontal or vertical location of the mouse. One more idea is that the waterfall could part or the mist could part when the mouse is in that location. 
          There Are No Words
  • Ozge Kirimlioglu - Midterm Idea
  • Peter Esveld - I'm creating a real-time interactive music visualization tool. Incorporates 3D visualizations, beat detection, and motion tracking. Also allows the user to manipulate sound. Work in progress
  • Patrick Grizzard - Application that receives SMS messages and displays the text using animated airplanes that draw the characters in the fashion of "skywriting." The current version has not yet integrated SMS texting, you have to enter a message in the field at the bottom of the page. Primary issues to address are resetting Plume objects once transparency <= 0 in order to free up memory (the animation slows down noticeably as more and more plumes are drawn). There's also some browser weirdness happening - if you run the applet once and navigate away from the page, then come back, the applet doesn't display. Suggestions, comments, feedback appreciated! Midterm Work-in-Progress
  • Timothy Gardner - I'm making a Processing application in which users may create bezier curves and paths with a graphical interface, then save them as strings in real-time to a text file somewhere on the hard drive. Ideally, it will save in two formats: one heavily laden with metadata relating paths to each other, and anything else one would like to add; the other a simple stack of bezier functions with the coordinates already filled in, for simple cut-and-paste, or automated reading. I've made most progress on the graphical interface, so far... proof of concept. 
      next step: integrate smoothing
  • Karla Calderon - I think that parsing data for weather is pretty interesting. I also think that aspects of weather and temperature are good metaphors for feelings and emotions. There's a decent amount of poetry out there that utilizes both in this very way. I figure it would be fun to combine the two. The user can enter their zip code and not only receive the temperature, but also the words of a corresponding poem. This would give the user a more playful "display" of weather. For the midterm, I'm starting with just text and temperature, but would ideally like to explore the idea of utilizing some kind of imagery - still or video later on. Hopefully it is not too taxing on the average computer user's cpu. This poem/imagery combo would come from not just temperature, but possibly also time, humidity and some other weather related key word. Data seems extremely slow to load when using online, but works relatively well within Processing.
