PROJECT 3: Final Project
OBJECTIVE: To use advanced coding techniques to create a portfolio quality dynamic sculpture piece that includes sound and / or kinetic elements that respond to viewer interaction.
GOAL: To create a sculpture that responds to viewer presence though dynamic digital sound or digital motion.
PROCESS:
- The final project is somewhat open, however it must include these elements:
- Arduino
- Motion via a controlled stepper motor OR triggered audio playback
- An interactive and/or responsive element via sensor input.
- A “concept.”
- Your project can build on concepts considered in your earlier projects but must manifest itself as it’s own distinct project, i.e. it can not simply be an iteration.
- Start by sketching!
- Sketch at least ten different ideas.
- Choose three that you like the most and develop them further (with models / samples).
- Choose one to present to the class, but be prepared to speak about the other two if needed.
- Make art.
VOCABULARY: arduino, shield, stepper motor, motor controller, collar, flex coupler
