Spatialized Umbrella v01

This is my first prototype of the Spatialized Umbrella. The Spatialized Umbrella project offers an entirely new dimension to walking in the rain. Using light and sound spatialization this umbrella creates an immersive, mobile, and highly personal multi‐sensory environment.  Range sensing technology helps the Spatialized Umbrella react to your movement through a space. 5 speakers and LEDs [ READ MORE ]

Messa di Voce

about 2 weeks ago, i got the chance to see one of my teachers, zachary lieberman, perform at NYU. It was a piece called Messa di Voce which in italian means "placing the voice". It essentially is an interactive visualizer for the human voice in real time. IR light and cameras track the performers' location on stage and 2 projectors were used side by side to project the visualizations of their respective voices. here's some video that i took -- [ READ MORE ]

LightBox • modular controller

I should've posted this up here about a month ago, but by the time I finished the project, i was far too burnt out to blahg about it. Anyway, here now, is LightBox, my final project for Major Studio: Interface class. mothercube, finished concept: physically and functionality modular, multi-input controllers with visual feedback and dynamic sensor data output. Manipulating video, sound, or anything digital is possible with LightBox, and when using more than one simultaneously, group interaction and collaboration is possible, as the controllers themselves are wirelessly networked. project post-mortem paper here. final design: final schematic Here is a not-so-revealing video of one mothercube and one daughtercube (all i had the time and money to build), being run through a theremin-emulator max patch. I have written a sampler patch and video controller in jitter, I will document these soon enough (making sure you can see my hands) and then post the patches. READ MORE / SEE PICTURES...[ READ MORE ]
