Concept My concept for this project was overwhelmingly simple: I wanted to let users (virtually) play with something that many of us have dreamed of having but no one has ever actually used. I’m talking about the iconic weapon from … Continue reading →

Concept In this exercise I simply want to interpret the computer’s awareness of a nearby person in a more subtle and artistic way. So I came up with the idea of representing the proximity of the audience using a flower. … Continue reading →

      Concept: In the modern day world, laptops are ever present and humans are becoming slowly even more reliant on them, spending increasingly more time staring at our computer screens. We can reasonably assume that we are simply … Continue reading →

Concept: The concept of my piece is the simple idea to make a program that would simulate those boards you see that have faces cut out and you can stick your face in.  I created a simulation of this using … Continue reading →

Concept I wanted to do something simple to get acquainted with OpenCV. I thought it would be cool to do face recognition and turn movement into sound. In my project, the computer produces sound as you move your face around … Continue reading →

Concept Ever since I was introduced to OpenCV, I wanted to make some sort of movement based game.  I kept coming back to an idea I had I named “Strike a Pose”, where a silhouette would appear on the screen … Continue reading →

Concept The idea for this project came from the television habits of several of my family members and their tendency to watch “trash tv”. I combined this with the idea that you can make the “trash tv” go away by … Continue reading →

  Concept: For this project I decided to reproduce a “magical” device using our “muggle” technology.  I noticed the blob and face detection in OpenCV is sort of flickery and unclear, which strongly reminded me of Mad-Eye Moody’s “Foe Glass,” … Continue reading →

Concept: My idea for this exercise came from wanting to create an experience where a user could create music based on movements of their body. My exercise has two different modes, which you can switch between by pressing the ‘s’ … Continue reading →

Concept: The concept of this OpenCV exercise was created from thinking about what’s right around the corner, winter.  I started thinking about my usual cold weather habits that kick start as soon as snow falls and found one recurring pattern, … Continue reading →
