1st Semester:

Perspective

The perspective investigated within this project is that of public interaction and
participation, and how the recording of experiences and visual perception, which explore
both virtual and physical surroundings, can be disseminated showing the emergence of
a new sense of place within the digital environment.

To ensure that this project can be properly executed other artists in similar fields have
also been researched and attempts at recreating similar ideas initially have been
undertaken. Main influences in the first part of this project have been from the likes of
Rafael Lozano Hemmer, Troika, Pablo Valbuena and Random International. All include
elements of ‘play’ and discovery while using digital technology in an innovative manner.

Software

The main software used to create these ‘test’ experiences have been MaxMSP and
Jitter. Initially practical experiments included the basic inclusion of a camera, film clip
and user interaction. Mainly the user would attempt to control their visual imagery. This
has then evolved to cameras/sensors picking up movement from different interactive
‘actions’. Depending on the movements being made; depends on the visuals and
imagery that the participant sees. The challenge in the practical part of this project now
is to allow the user to control more elements of images and live film and assess the
individuals level of participation and discovery and exploration of the media, alongside
passive observers also unintentionally being involved. Initially the project had a slightly
different direction in that the user would just ‘interact’ with an object, however, now the
feeling is that the user must gain something, some insight from this interaction and
discover something or create a new experience while participating. The main
component in this project is to understand the advanced capabilities of Maxmsp – which

$'
is being addressed via attending monthly ‘open knowledge seminars’, allowing for digital
‘artists’ to swap knowledge, ideas and concepts and provide tutorials and talks. Other
interactive elements have also been tested such as smaller projects and tests in flash to
gain an insight into public reaction to interactive work, prior to building larger projects.

Development

The development within this part of the project will allow for further investigation into
particular behaviours that people automatically display when initially confronted with
familiar technology and how this changes as they experiment with the interactive and
participative component of the piece.

Preliminary findings and experiments have proven that people enjoy ‘discovering’ the
playfulness of the work, and start to explore other ways and ideas of using it, once they
are comfortable. Being confronted with their own representation for some can be an
almost instant engagement, others take longer to realize that some of the imagery they
are interacting with and controlling is actually being operated by their participation. The
discovery of this can prove different depending on the user.

This current practical development is what is driving the research and methodology of
this project, as new findings are discovered by audience participation then further
research into space, environment, user interaction and participation are developed and
undertaken. The main concept that has been prominent in this is that of the familiar and
the unfamiliar, and how self-awareness and also in-built behaviours come to the
forefront. When a user is confronted with what is known to them, and then asked to
engage with it in an unexpected way, new actions can be discovered.

Much of this initial practical part of the project is experimental and is furthered by more
exploration and user interaction. The aim is for this to then become very much a user
driven experience, which is different for each individual.
