I’ve been doing some research and sketching for the breathing_time breath detection device. It could take the shape of piece of clothing or lean more towards a device/tool look. I’ve explored the possibilities: I think the wearable variation is a bit too much: As air is such a subtle, immaterial thing I want to underline […]

financial support
Recently I received confirmation that my subsidy application has been granted! The subsidy covers most of the costs I have to make to develop a mobile application. This is what the app will look like on my new Android phone: It’s basic but the visualisations are on the wearable itself and on the web maps. […]
OOP item list
I’ve finally started building. I’ve made an inventory of all the properties and methods a list of items should have and now I’m building the background. I’m very new to Object Orientated Programming in Flash. So I’m building and learning at the same time. In the pic you see the main background of (in this […]
portrait as data
During my month of muteness I record a minute long video everyday around 12 o’ clock. I hope that my face will tell the story of what it is like not to speak for a month. I’ve looked at some footage and want to make three interaction modes with the data: 1) all films playing […]
numuseum archive backend
I finally managed to get all the stuff about the back-end workings of the archive part of numuseum from my head into a diagram. It’s a great relief to see all the subjects in their different visualisations attached to the correct tools and APIs. I’ve got so much room in my head now that I’ve […]
annual rings
I’ve worked on the new numuseum interface today, these are the first sketches. I want to combine the different subjects (e.g. webart, photographs, etc.) in a scrollable circular interface that functions as a timeline. The black lines indicate the years (like annual rings in a tree) and the coloured lines are the subjects. The red […]
nerdy
Yesterday we continued working on the database of the Connected Open Greens project. This time with the help of Balthazar, a real programmer. It was a very inspiring and productive day. At Balths’ suggestion we’ll make the database structure much more, generic. You have to be a computer scientist to come up with what he […]
continuing numuseum design
Chronology, subject and tags will become the main interface for navigating the numuseum content. For inspiration – and because I’m a map freak – I bought this lovely book: Cartographies of Time: A History of the Timeline (view image). See the full gallery on Posterous
orange portrait
As part of my media art business card set I’ve created a self portrait in my favourite colour.
Outline new numuseum design
First map of the content and structure of the next numuseum design. Start with an app that shows all the live data. Visitors can then choose if they browse by category, timeline or tag cloud. They should also be able to search the content. This won’t be easy to realize because a lot of content […]
