Last Semester

Interactive Art Level 3

* Free topic.
* Chosen topic: High and Low Technologies.

* Idea:
Exploring various gestures that can be used in objects/ devices as a lot of today's objects are operated through button(s) (e.g. lamp, computer, remote control, blender, etc.) by using different kinds of traditional devices, which have more variety in terms of ways of operation and embed them with today's technologies (computer program, electronics).

* Intended outcome:
A work that allows both hi-tech and low-tech users to be able to interact with.

* Objects:
- A kaleidoscope.
By rotating different parts of the body of the kaleidoscope, users could change the visual generated by the computer.
- A handheld fan
As a controller.
- An abacus.
- As a sound synthesizer.
