Using an idea my friend Rob had to use processing to recreate the opening sequence to the Brady Bunch by recording a few seconds of you looking around then placing them in the appropriate squares. I collaborated with Ben Chao who is currently in LA who helped write the code. I didn’t want to buy a wig for $20.00 and never use it again, so i made one out of yellow tape i found in the wood shop. So much better than any wig!!!

Done completely in Processing over the course of two months with a lot of help from my mentor Chris Healey, and a huge thanks to Bria for doing (most of) the art in what little time we had!
This is going to launch really soon as a real facebook application so you can play with your own data. This is just mine - i sadly had to copy and paste all the data in to crappy text files. I have the means to make it live, I just need some more time - we have a presentation TOMORROW morning ugghhh and I’ve been up all night. I’m just so freaking excited.
*nudge* by the way, mr. ben fry, if you just so happened to want to feature this on the front page, I would not object at allll 
Credits, and huge thanks to:
Chris Healey: mentor, wizard when things went bad with our computer systems.
Wray Bowling (me): for sticking with it until the bitter end. I made the deadline! YEAH!
Bria: putting up with my crap, re-painting a a ton of stuff over and over to get it just right..
And.. yeah. now I’m really hungry. Just realized I haven’t slept in two days x_x; How’m I going to stay awake for that Sound Tribe Sector 9 concert tonight to celebrate???

“Weather Report” uses Brick, a tangible & multi touch interface, to sonify real-time weather data (surface temperature). Video taken at the tables premier at Sea and Space Explorations gallery in Los Angeles. Created by Jordan Hochenbaum and Owen Vallis @ California Institute of the Arts.

Software from David Muth added to the exhibition.
Let’s say we write a instructions serie that defines a organism. Instructions are the same for all this kind of beings, but they have cualitative diferences.
Their life is modulated in frames, like cinema. So for having them all in the same frame, the instrucion have being filled several times with different numbers; the grass parameters (rotation, height…). Parameters must recive numbers slightly differents in the next frame so we percibe a gradual change.
This processing code creates an array of objects of a class. For me it was intresting to fill the parameters with random numbers that could change gradually from frame to frame.
Colour is a function of the leaf’s rotation.
The music is from “los cerros”.

I am finding less time to blog these days, and my list of things to blog keeps getting bigger and bigger. From now on I will do a Pixelsumo digest at the end of each month, containing projects that didn’t make it into full posts in time.
So to start off, here are projects I wish I had written about recently…
The Image Fulgurator by Julius von Bismarck is a device for physically manipulating photographs. It intervenes when a photo is being taken, without the photographer being able to detect anything. The manipulation is only visible on the photo afterwards.

Playing the Building is an installation by David Byrne, on in New York until 24th August, go and see it. (thanks Andy)
Following on from Evoke, Usman Haque has created Primal Source for the Glow festival in California. “making use of a large-scale outdoor waterscreen projection system, Primal Source will appear like a mirage, glowing with colours and ebullient patterns generated by the competing or collaborative voices, music and screams of people nearby”. Coverage and video on Notcot
Golan Levin has created Double-Taker (Snout)… “orients itself towards passers-by, tracking their bodies and suggesting an intelligent awareness of their activities. The goal of this kinetic system is to perform convincing “double-takes” at its visitors, in which the sculpture appears to be continually surprised by the presence of its own viewers — communicating, without words, that there is something uniquely surprising about each of us.”
Jason Bruges Studio have created Applause, an array of computer controlled flags at the Goodwood Festival of Speed for Veuve Clicquot. The flags rotate to point at passing race cars or to watch polo matches. Concept render videos shown on Dezeen, documentation of project on main JBS site.
Karsten Schmidt (aka PostSpectacular) has been super busy with his Processing based works. These include generative book covers for Faber print on demand, a cover for Print magazine using genetic processes & 3d model printing, as well as a fiducial generator for use with Reactivision tracking software.
Snog is a new frozen yogurt shop in London. The branding concept & design by ico design, and lighting design, including a led video display ceiling with moving clouds by Cinimod Studio.
Theodore Watson, Emily Gobeille and Meredith Dittmar have a new show at the Riviera gallery in New York until 10th August. Well worth a visit.
