computer vision

chris sugrue base 8

web cam

pulling webcam image into processing then defining the range of what is ‘seen’

open CV libary

using a library facial recognition

recognising features (and swopping them around!) kinect seeing depth (and colour)

use code to transform and play with the images

interactivity

sensors flex sensors

ADXL335 accelerometer

proximity sensor Infra red

need to map 35 at start to zero (acceleration) (not position)

not how close, it detects the heat, not on the beam. human presence one hand clapping!

mapping data now isn’t enough

tilt sensor (switch) move?

colour sensors ultrasonic range sensors

rgb / led mimic analogue colour continous also IR input need to be close

temperature + humidity you have to decide on threshold (not just on/off)

sholds we are deciding what the thre are: brings questions with it.... meaningful values: “features� positiv e/neg emotional state

heart beat sensor clip on to ear

bringing information together in a meaningful way...how do you giv e more meaning to what you are doing? creating meaningful bonds - critical eye

Thank You Rachel!

Thank you mama Uwa for everything :) I have learnt the most invaluable lessons of my life from you. (the after class lessons) You have changed me in many ways and I love that. You are an amazing person. Super hard working and always on time. Thanks for all those lovely walks to home and for the space at home :) It was a great place to be at. My experience in Berlin wouldn’t have been this great without you. You are the most invaluable person of my life. I have saved my coins and will use them when I come to Berlin again to meet you :) I still have all the train tickets that you gave me and I ate all the gummy bears.Thanks for all the pictures that you took of me and you know :P You’ve been so sincere in that, more than Milos :D You have been so supportive all this while. Thanks for the girl power! Thanks for everything.

Art isn’t about what you make but what you make happen.--Jeremy Deller

Like I’ve said before: it’s mind-boggling to think that all the activities, speakers, and events we peeps experienced over the past month were arranged by *one* amazing person.

You’ve done a great thing, Rachel Uwa. Life-changing, even. A million thanks wouldn’t be enough. But it’s a start.

A million thanks, Soma

P.S.: note the Oxford comma.

Thank you so much for this opportunity! Two months ago I would never imagine I would ever meet all the people you brought to the school, even more, actually exchange ideas with them. It’s a dream come true that will always define my new path. I really hope that ours roads cross again, personally and professionally, and whatever you do, you keep doing it with the passion and care. Oh... And by the way... I really don’t think we look like Peeps. : P Kisses, already with saudade*
