For the exhibition I wanted to create a base that would house the iPad, software and toggles. Firstly, I created a basic mock-up using cardboard, I wanted to use this as a template to help me deign the net in Abobe Illustrator. I took the dimensions of the eye and nose socket from a google cardboard,... Continue Reading →
Digital Tinkering – two toggles and a piezo
This mini project is a step further in the right direction, each of the toggles turns on a the piezo. I want the circuit to remain closed when the user has pushed the button therefore I will need to use maintained switches. This means it will stay in one state until actuated into a new one and...

Digital Tinkering – Basic midi (buttons & piezo)
For the exhibition I want to create a small midi-controller to help demonstrate how the switch may work. For this I have used 8 button switches and a piezo. As the user presses each button the piezo plays a sound. The switch interrupts the flow if electricity, breaking the circuit when it is open. When... Continue Reading →
Arduino, MaxMSP & Modul8
This diagram illustrates how the project could potentially work. Arduino is a micro controller used for prototyping and will be used to control the toggle. MaxMSP is a visual programming environment used for multi-media and music, it will act as the interface between Arduino and Modul8. The user controls the visual / audio parameters by...

Filming – Edit Three
I have re-shot the scene mentioned in the previous post 'Filming - Edit Two'. I am pleased with how it looks overall but I do want to apply various different affects to give it a cinematic feel and help start manipulating it, so the footage looks 'anxious'. I recently started to watch a TV series... Continue Reading →
Filming – Edit Two
Before, transferring the footage into Premiere Pro. I cropped it further, as a lot of the footage was walking in/out of the frame, this didn't add any value to the narrative. At 37 seconds, I have filmed the actress putting her hands infront of the lens, the screen turns black. I have decided to cut this... Continue Reading →
Filming – Edit One
"Filming is a funny combination of having a good time and not being able to wait until it's over." - Nicole Holofcener Yesterday, I spent the day filming . In a previous post 'Planing the Content - Pre-production" I outlined the script and storyboard. Unfortunately, things did not go to plan and I had to make... Continue Reading →
What is the relationship between the interface and anxiety
In my blog post 'Choosing a concept' I discussed how my chosen concept is disconnected from the proposed interface. To help me generate ideas of how to make the two link I have mapped ideas and insights surrounding the following question 'what is the relationship between the interface and anxiety?' I have extract information collected through... Continue Reading →
Choosing a concept
Over the past few weeks I have focused my attention on the technology and software I want to use. With only a few weeks to go its really important that I turn my attention to narrative and interactions to ensure that the experience I create is memorable. Concept One Concept Two Concept Three I have... Continue Reading →
