The Fire Bird is a first experiment on building characters exploring interactive wearable technologies. This is a work in progress. I’m imagening here a performing arts environment where the performer will be able to control different elements of the space making different gestures. To compose the Fire Bird so far, I’ve created gloves that generateContinue reading “The Fire Bird”

Pcomp Final Project
The fire bird light and sound glove storytelling bases for coreography Movement 1: The fire bird flies to the city. Movement 2: The fire bird finds a place to die and dies. Movement 3: The invisible seed that was inside of the belly of the fire bird geminates. Movement 4: Zoom in the seed andContinue reading “Pcomp Final Project”
fabrication – week 1
eye rainbow box flashlight For this assignment, I was tasked to create a flashlight defined as portable, battery-powered, and creates light. My first thought was that I wanted to work with things that I already had in hands and create something that could be used as a wearable. So, the only thing I had toContinue reading “fabrication – week 1”
animation – week 1 – stop motion
The seed This week I worked with Lizzy Chiappini. We were tasked to create a 30 seconds loop stop motion animation video. As a starting point for the process, we saw each other’s portfolio and tried to find out points of intersections in the subjects of our past artworks. We found out that both ofContinue reading “animation – week 1 – stop motion”
Pcomp – midterm project documentation
Finding Words My midterm project for physical computing is an ongoing project. I’m creating a performative poem about a cyborg bird who died in the middle of the city. Where the bird died, a tree grew, because the bird had an invisible seed inside their belly. What is this seed made of and how doesContinue reading “Pcomp – midterm project documentation”
physical computing – midterm project
Finding Words I think that some memories need to be preserved as well as some future presences, that don’t exist yet, need to materialize themselves. And to do so, I feel like telling a story. It’s a story about a cyborg bird who died in the middle of the city and, where they died, aContinue reading “physical computing – midterm project”
computational media – week 5
This week I learned how to create functions and objects and how it can be applied to create repetitions and modulations. The code that I chose to do it was kind of tricky because some parts of the variables I used to create it, needed to be defined in the setup function, some in theContinue reading “computational media – week 5”
physical computing – Learning how to learn and Labs 2 and 3
For the past few weeks, I’ve been struggling to learn Pcomp. I feel that the ability to mix coding with electronics is something that takes a lot of time to assimilate, considering that both are quite new universes for me. Hence, I started to create new learning strategies to find ways to study on myContinue reading “physical computing – Learning how to learn and Labs 2 and 3”
computational media – week 3
Collective Artificial Fire Flower This week me, Name and Ray created an interactive firework set in P5.js with three different effects, related to the interactive functions MousePressed, MouseDrag and keyPressed. Although we have different levels of coding knowledge, it was very motivating to work together and come up with solutions for the problems we faced.Continue reading “computational media – week 3”
computational media – week 1
This is my first assignment drawing using p5.js web editor. I started the design of a creature that in the future can become an animation, a performance, or both. She has no name yet and probably she doesn’t speak our language. about the process…. First of all, it took much more time than I thoughtContinue reading “computational media – week 1”
