for my final project I wanted to create an object that made different noises depending on position and handling; but I wanted to take it away from the realm of functional instruments.

To do this, I used captivate touch sensing by wiring up an arduino, and sent data through serial to a maxpatch that manipulated the input into sound.

video of use

other sound

Construction:

I constructed the form out of polymer clay; which i sculpted to fit my hand; and a magnet to allow it to fit together while being able to be opened. I wanted to stay away from rapid prototyping techniques such as 3d printing and lasercutting because i felt that they take away from the organic result i was trying to achieve, and would place it into a context i wasn’t interested in.

I created the circuit by soldering resistors and wires onto pins that fit easily into the breadboard on the arduino. The arduino is removable but the wires and copper tape are built into the shape

[will refine documentation on friday]

For This project I wanted to find a way to combine FaceOSC with a Particle System. Most of my time was spent familiarizing myself with making and altering matrices in jit, as well as creating and recreating the system of particles through learning and understanding the physics principles, learning max functions and codes, as well as experimenting with changing parameters to influence my output.

What I have is a particle system that creates graphics based off of the movement and motion of your head and face.

Input:

Tears for fears – head over heals
Age of empires soundtrack

Flipping the real number and imaginary numbers:

Pairing the real from one with the imaginary from the other:

(the ending of this one was what I thought was the most interesting)

Pairing the real of one sound as the imaginary, and the imaginary from the other sound as the real:

flipping amp and phase:

amp from one with phase from the other:

( i couldnt upload the whole thing cause the file size was too big but i really liked the output for this combination)

Using the last sound above, I multiplied the phase by the bin index

then I multiplied the amplitude by the other bin index
