Interactive Art That Inspires Me


This piece is The Wooden Mirror that uses a camera to see people who walk up to it. The wooden plates have three different ways they can move: upward they are bright, in the middle, they are a middle tone, and downward they are dark. The camera picks up the image of the people that come close to it and the wooden tiles are motorized so they change to look like the person's face. I am really inspired by the natural material used in this interactive piece and the really cool sound that is a byproduct of the tiles moving.

This is a piece made by Converse that uses Converse Chuck Taylor shoes that are half red and half white. The basic principle is the same as the wooden mirror but they also use different graphics and images to show up on the screen in reaction to sound. I am inspired by the graphics that they use with this interactive piece.


This is a piece called ACCESS by Marie Sester "that lets web users track anonymous individuals in public places, by pursuing them with a robotic spotlight and acoustic beam system". It's very creepy and cool in that millions of people were watching these individuals getting tracked by the spotlight. I was inspired by the remoteness and randomness of this piece.
