Group Check-in – 62-362 Fall 2020 https://courses.ideate.cmu.edu/62-362/f2020 Electronic Logics && Creative Practice Fri, 13 Nov 2020 16:14:50 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=5.4.15 In Progress Critique: John https://courses.ideate.cmu.edu/62-362/f2020/in-progress-critique-john/ Sun, 25 Oct 2020 12:59:06 +0000 https://courses.ideate.cmu.edu/62-362/f2020/?p=9976 This is some fabrication in progress and some tinkerCad files I’ve been doing testing with.

they were just for tests so I didn’t finish them, but if you want to see, these are the links

Group Check-in No. 1: John https://courses.ideate.cmu.edu/62-362/f2020/group-check-in-no-1-john/ Sun, 25 Oct 2020 12:52:33 +0000 https://courses.ideate.cmu.edu/62-362/f2020/?p=9964 I decided to make an automata of a barber. These are some of the sketches of the idea.

Cut is an experiment in creating an interactive work with permanent consequences exacted on the piece by the audience member. Intended for use by one person in a private space, a piece of cardstock has printed on it a branching pathway for the participant to cut along using scissors, along with pieces of texts that instruct which pathways to cut down. Attached to the surface at various points along this branching surface are pieces of a conductive material (such as aluminum foil or conductive tape). These are connected to a logic chip or an Arduino, allowing for these connections to be turned off when bisected by scissors. The participant will have to choose where they cut carefully, and as they cut, these severed connections have lasting changes on an ambient piece of music in the background, made either through Analog circuitry or an mp3 sampler chip like DFPlayer Mini. This musical part is what ties this more to my musical side – I love interactive music and as for what led me to this, I’ve always found destructive art fascinating. There’s more stakes for the participant. Choice is important and I want to illustrate that in this piece!
Bill of materials:
  • Cardstock/Cardboard (already have)
  • Aluminum Foil (already have)
  • Glue/Tape (already have
  • Scissors (already have this)
  • Logic chip(s) (part of take home kit)
  • Possibly Arduino/alligator clips (already have this)
  • small loudspeaker (already have)

Dance Box Group Check-In https://courses.ideate.cmu.edu/62-362/f2020/dance-box-group-check-in/ Wed, 16 Sep 2020 17:51:37 +0000 https://courses.ideate.cmu.edu/62-362/f2020/?p=9510
  • Dance Box
    1. Interaction mode: Body engaging, dance (with activation points to refill coffee, turn lights on, and turn lights off).
    2. Intended siting: Indoor, spacious room, dark.
    3. Intended experience for audience: View a performance or interact directly. For example, in order to get a cup of coffee, you have to perform a dance.
    4. Theoretical underpinnings (what led you to this): Desire for movement, excessive amounts of energy because of being at home a lot. I find myself dancing around my house a lot, thought it could be interesting to incorporate that into my project. 
    5. Relevance to you and your practice: Responsive environments are important to me, I find that they ground me in the present moment, something I struggle with. Recently I’ve been drawn to create work based around the present moment more than ever before.
    6. Updated drawing are below the text.
    7. Listing of needed materials: Four times 6’ 2×2 wood planks, Eight times 3.5’ 2×2 wood planks, nails, hammer, break beam sensors, adhesive (tape), lights/light strips strips (4) for each vertical part  of frame.
