Valero-Cuevas is one of THE main voices in hand biomechanics and has done a lot of great work. Also check out the ACT hand by Yoky Matsuoka. Great finds.

I really love the idea. :) Viva la street art! Maybe this is a starting point to allow people in far away areas to do graffiti in NYC without having to be in the exact location. i also love that music is the input since art and music seem to blend really well together. Would love to see what a Metallica song would make compared to a Lada Gaga song. Keep up the arduino magic! Great stuff!!!! I really love the idea. :) Viva la street art!

]]> Comment on talk to me & an analysis of interactive design by Matthew Epler http://itp.nyu.edu/~cm2897/blog/?p=86#comment-2 Matthew Epler Wed, 14 Sep 2011 20:09:06 +0000 http://itp.nyu.edu/~cm2897/blog/?p=86#comment-2 Claire, I really liked your point about duration. It seems people are very interested in interactivity as a "play" experience and thus think of it as having a short time span. Almost as if interactive activity is not "real" activity and it must be exited in order to return to real life. Yet, in your example of flashing lights, there are interactive situations that we might not consider "interactive," when compared to any of the pieces in MoMA. So is duration dependent on awareness? Interesting.... Matt E. Claire,
