COM Truck

Objective
To experiment with three "low-fi" Korean advertising trucks. Its realy an experiment in the missapropriation of exhisting technology. I think this ois one of the few ways at present that media can be transported and set in various locations at high speed.

Equipment and logistics
First we need to find a company to rent the equipment from and then experiment with the softeware thast they use, I would hope that we can modify the technology to make the whole project interactive and realtime.

It may or may not be possible to put low resolution video through the truck LED system in realtime. Or it may be possible to interact with the imahe or animation in realtine, as each location may trigger a different set of graphics to be displaed. Realtime locative media is what we are realy after.


Output
The Instalations will be filmed by atleast 3 camera simultaneously.
The footage of wich will be edited into a three minute movie.
This movie will be the final output describing the technical working process and physical working

APT Interaction



Objective
To create a real-time interactive relationship between the organic sonic life of an urban structure and the surface skin of the structure. To transform the relatively inanimate structure into a visually living thing.

Equipment and logistics
As in the diagram we need 5 transmission mobile phones to be covertly placed within the structure. Each mobile will transmit the audio from its specific location and be set to "auto answer". There will be 5 receiving mobiles each wired into a mini mixing desk. A notebook will translate the audio signal real time piping the signal into specified reactive software, preliminary this will be flash, but could be any soft we decide.

I expect the first test to be done in the next 2 weeks using the standard projector and a single mobile set, We should be able to achieve this during class time.

After the test we can proceed to work out how to organize and plan the final installation

Location
As per the location research

Costs
As I will be funding the project I expect ALL costs to be detailed at each stage, At present the main cost will be the mobile phones and their connection and the truck rental.

EI Interactive Structures


Objective
To create an interactive morphogenetic structure which is responsive to its environment in realtime.

Equipment and logistics
My initial concept is generate digital organic graffiti forms that will be morpho genetically guided towards a set of three output foprms. The construction of wich will probably utilize the bamboo lantern technology available in Korea


Output
The Instalations will be filmed by atleast 3 camera simultaneously.
The footage of wich will be edited into a three minute movie.
This movie will be the final output describing the technical working process and physical working
Installation prototype.


June 28-2008 Projection Mapping test.
Here is the first test of a maya camera matched to the Mitsu 480U projector.
The Virtual camera was matched by using a glass lens distorte inside maya, then raytrace rendering.
