Computational Media – Final Project

Meme Collider In collaboration with Johnny Lu, we set out with a mutual goal: to create a basic interactive platform for creating new Han-based graphemes or ideographs. —this notion grew from a simple question: how are new words made in … Continue reading

Computational Media – Final Project Proposal

Kanji / Hanzi Builder | Meme Collider In collaboration with Johnny Lu we will explore two projects, ultimately bringing one of them to a final and complete form. Both projects concern written language and the propagation of meaning through it. While revisiting … Continue reading

Computational Media – Week 8

Dynamics Sketch for Meme Collider Movement and GUI sketch Meme Collider will hopefully grow into a final project for the semester. While I am still figuring out the basic logic, the general idea is a fluid space where words and … Continue reading

Computational Media – Week 6

Ultra Lo Def While Hi Definition is all the rage… how else to stand out but with a maximum resolution of 4 x 3 pixels… Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey is truly riveting, especially with the matching 4bit downsampled audio. While … Continue reading

Computational Media – Week 4

Objects (TwitterSphere) Not  a big Twitterer (tweeter??) myself… but thought that something fun could be done with all that chatter. This quick processing sketch takes the raw (unfiltered) Twitter feed and displays it as concentric circles. I hope to expand … Continue reading

Computational Media – Week 3

Conditionals In collaboration with Will Jennings… a continuation on the previous Bauhaus clocks. We added a world timezone interface that adjusts the clock’s time to the selected timezone and changes the clocks colors according to day and night: Applet and Source (Mac … Continue reading

Computational Media – Week 1

First Processing Sketch Limited to 2D primitives like: rect(), ellipse(), line(), and quad()… we were to create a static image of our choice. At a loss I turned to one of my favorite architects Louis Khan.. whose work I felt … Continue reading
