Glittermouse recently participated in the TINT Arts Lab first season of residencies. Visit the Arts Lab for details of developments in the This Belongs To Project
New adjustments to Processing code during workshop at Mad Lab Manchester (thanks to Lewis at Cybersonica!) allows a calibration of the serial input data on start up, avoiding the time consuming process of manual light readings and editing of code to reflect different thresholds. Hope to be including video/audio soon... Code here.
Testing LEDS with a Belongs to Card raises problems relating to distance of beam from card and focus of shadow... The size of the aperture may have an impact on this... further trials needed!
Further modifications to Processing code include a third image into the interactive image set up; next steps will hopefully include facilitating the use of video/audio and setting this up so that the sensor is in the beam of the projector. Code here for reference, insert your own images!
Following recent survey feedback which supports findings that interaction with the urban environment can help us feel more at home within it, research into interactive technologies is now being conducted.
These videos show some intial experiments with Arduino in developing these ideas and looks at generating interactive objects and environments.

Drawing Installation 3D Development Nov 2009 - April 2010 (Development toward Marking the Territory)
March 2010:
Developed use of video now includes simultaneous shots, captured at right angles to one another. The subsequent projections are lined up onto the etched piece to give additional three dimensionality to solid objects (such as buildings) while passers by appear to walk across the field of view without the distortion that would occur using one projection onto an angle.
Feb 2010:
Experiments continue with laser etched objects now being projected onto with Digital Video which has allowed for a higher quality of projected image and two views of the same street give an increased sense of three dimensionality. Additional use of slide projectors continue the discussion of permanence and transience and 'fill in' the shadows cast by the object in the projection of the digital video.
Jan 2010:
Experiments with laser etched MDF to produce further textured surfaces. These include the utilisation of analogue slide projection as an alternative method to digital projectors. In these trials, digital images have been transferred to transparency and projected onto the laser etchings.
Nov 2009:
Part of a series of investigations which aim to develop the use of 3D space in the drawing installation work, these images show experimentations with multiple projections on to plaster blocks. Casts from surfaces in the city streets have been used to produce a textured surface and a 3D form on which to project the images and film.
