Pet fish often seem bored with their meaningless lives. They have so much to say to us, but they have no way they can communicate. As simple humans, we find it hard to understand their swimming patterns alone.
I want to help these noble creatures, by transforming their patterns in to art.
OR BETTER YET!:
I’d like to track my fishes patterns (via cheapie webcam, I think) and bring that information into a processing sketch. Ideally, I’d like to have that sketch embedded on on a screen/ using a pico projector, mini canvas, and mini easel, in a sort of diorama. The fish will be able to see its creations, giving the fish the opportunity to have full artistic control.
I’d also like to incorporate a small button and possible some knobs onto the side of this box. The button would clear the canvas and upload it to a dedicated tumblr, and the knobs would control the color and size of the brush.
As of now, I imagine that I’ll use a simple color-tracking processing sketch to control a the brush. Doesn’t sound too tough!
I’d like to expand this project to allow the fish to make music and write poetry. But fish–especially goldfish–are visual thinkers by nature, so the choice to begin with a visual medium is only logical.

When I first saw this title ICM final proposal | SARAH ROTHBERG ITP BLOG ROTHBERG BLOG YES BLOG on google I just whent and bookmark it. Generally I do not read post on blogs, even so I would like to say that this write-up extremely forced me to check out and do so! Your writing taste has been surprised me. Thank you, quite wonderful post.
I have to express my appreciation to this writer for rescuing me from such a condition. Because of exploring through the world wide web and meeting things that were not pleasant, I was thinking my life was done. Living devoid of the strategies to the problems you’ve solved all through your entire guideline is a critical case, and those that would have in a wrong way affected my career if I had not come across the website. Your main talents and kindness in playing with the whole lot was helpful. I don’t know what I would have done if I had not come across such a solution like this. I can at this moment look ahead to my future. Thanks so much for this skilled and amazing help. I won’t think twice to endorse your blog to anyone who needs and wants counselling on this topic.
