LO 1 – My Inspiration

Before this course, one project that I found inspirational and left a significant impression on me was a 15-112 term project called “TRIPPLE: Live Audio Visualizer” for the semester of Spring 2018 by Minji Kim. Using previous knowledge and programming skills that she acquired through her course, Minji used Python to create such a project. With visualization through music speakers and general interactive design becoming increasingly popular, Minji’s project was inspired by her love of music as well as other aesthetic visualizers.

I believe that while this project was concluded at the elementary stages, continuation and further development will set the basics of audio visualizers and pave the way for improved and upgraded live visual presenters for all different types of fields.
