Revised business cards
These are my revised business cards. Replaced the diagonal stripes with an undulating dot pattern that conveys texture but is a more legible ground for the text. I’m pretty happy with these, need to get some printed up soon.

ICM Final – Where is Now?
I’ve already documented the genesis of this project idea pretty thoroughly here, but I wanted to provide a brief update on how it’s progressing. I’m still tweaking the pixel analysis and image processing algorithm, but I’m pretty happy with the basic concept. To recap, Where is Now? is a two channel video in which each [...]
Physical Computing Final – System Diagram
More to come on this, but here is an initial diagram of the video installation that Karla and I are working on for our final project in PComp.
Spintone: The Data Auralizing News Organ
So, as the title of this post indicates, we had a hard time deciding on a final name for this project. I think in the end I like News Organ the best. Here is some looooooong-overdue video of the completed project. Unfortunately the audio really doesn’t do justice to the quality of the sound that [...]
Musings on Time-Frame-Pixel
Weekend-before-last I went to the Guggenheim to see Douglas Gordon’s 24 Hour Psycho. It was being screened as part of theanyspacewhatever show focusing on 90s/relational art. It played in its entirety, on two adjacent screens, one running forward and one backward, begining at 10:00 AM on Friday and running until 10:00 AM on Saturday. I [...]
Equiveillance
The midterm assignment for “Recurring Concepts in Art” (which has turned out to be an amazing class) was to recreate a previous work without using technology. Scott Hoffer and I collaborated on a game we titled “Equiveillance,” a reworking of Scott’s game Panopticombat. This was my first experience designing a game and I have to [...]
Physical Computing Midterm
I have been mulling over Rob Myers’s brilliant tweet from several months ago, proclaiming that “Data visualization is the socialist realism of neoliberalism.” While I have yet to write a post that fully investigates this idea, it has been in the back of my mind througout the semester and informing, at least indirectly, I think, [...]
iPhone for Tantalus
The topic in last week’s pcomp class was analog output. Doing things like controlling motors or dimming LEDs requires a varying voltage. But, since you can’t actually generate a changing voltage directly from digital microcontrollers like the Arduino, it’s necessary to use “fake” an analog voltage. As Tom Igoe notes in his page on analog [...]
