Multi-touch applications with Flash « Digital Music Volvelles I’ve written in a previous post that there is the idea of a standardised technique to connect multi-touch hardware to multi-touch software via TUIO. As we want to concentrate on Flash as visualisation and interaction layer for our digital volvelles I will present a Flash AS3 API for multi-touch with TUIO in this and further posts. The touchlib project from the NUI Group is a collection of software tools for the realisation of a multi-touch table. It provides tools like digital image processing for the tracking of fingers on a multi-touch screen, a TUIO server and so on. It additionally provides a Flash AS3 library in order to process TUIO messages inside of Flash and to provide standard interface elements e.g. sliders. All Flash applications that are being built with touchlib’s AS3 library can not only be used with a TUIO enabled multi-touch device but also with a mouse. The touchlib project including the mentioned AS3 library can be downloaded here. Like this: Like Loading...
CITU Adam & Atau - 4 Hands iPhone - Atau Tanaka Adam & Atau exploit a commonly available consumer electronics device, the Apple iPhone, as an expressive, gestural musical instrument. The device is well known an iconic object of desire in our society of consumption. The iPhone can play music as a commodity, and this is the way most listeners interact with it.

Dossier Technical rider Open Culture + Wearables This panel will investigate the influence and importance of open culture on wearables production, dissemination and technological crafting. Uniting practitioners in the field of wearables who have worked on and with online platforms, open workshop events, publications, hack spaces, university classrooms and media labs to advance the proliferation of the craft of wearables, the panel will present case studies for the specific integration of open culture in the production and dissemination of wearables. Dates: Monday, 19 September, 2011 - 13:00 - 14:30 Movement by 2nd year Fashion & Textile student at the Royal Academy of Art in The Hague Knit and Crochet 3lectromode – Asymmetrical Modern 001 Chair: Valérie Lamontagne This panel will investigate the influence and importance of open culture on wearables production, dissemination and technological crafting.

Dutchpack V2_Lab Projects - Trac Mapping terrain in space and time: Exclusive interview with JoAnn Kuchera-Morin of the AlloSphere Dr. JoAnn Kuchera-Morin works on the AlloSphere, one of the largest scientific and artistic instruments in the world. Based at UC Santa Barbara, the AlloSphere maps complex data in time and space. Dr. Kuchera-Morin, a composer, demoed the AlloSphere at TED2009 in February, showing five films of scientific data mapped visually and sonically into compelling art. Last week I talked with Dr. Some of my mathematician colleagues are working with 6-dimensional figures. There are scientists who have lost the ability to perceive their data. Read the full interview >> More: If you’re around Santa Barbara next week, hear JoAnn Kuchera-Morin’s work at the Primavera Festival More: For a celebration of boundary-breaking science research, read “In search of the black swans,” Physicsworld April 2009So what’s going on at the AlloSphere? Different people from different facets understand the nature of the instrument, and understand what we’re trying to do to bring art, science and engineering together.
Singularité technologique Au-delà de ce point, le progrès ne serait plus l’œuvre que d’intelligences artificielles, ou « supraintelligence » qui s’auto-amélioreraient, de nouvelles générations de plus en plus intelligentes apparaissant de plus en plus rapidement, créant une « explosion d'intelligence » créant finalement une puissante superintelligence qui dépasserait qualitativement de loin l'intelligence humaine[1],[2],[3]. Le risque serait que l'humanité perde le contrôle de son destin[4]. L'auteur de science fiction Vernor Vinge est même convaincu, dans son essai La venue de la singularité technologique, que la singularité signifierait la fin de l'ère humaine[3], la nouvelle superintelligence continuant de s'améliorer et d'évoluer technologiquement à une vitesse incompréhensible pour les humains[5]. Cette notion de singularité technologique aurait été envisagée par John von Neumann dès les années 1950[6] et ses conséquences ont été débattues dans les années 1960 par I.

[KONTEJNER] - Home KONTEJNER is inviting all artists, inventors, scientists, geek tech lovers and all other passionate tech heads to enter the open call and apply their works for presentation at the fourth edition of Device_art! The call for proposals is open until May 2nd 2012. The term device_art refers to art production based on various aspects of technological devices and mechanisms: the creative usage of analogue/digital, high/low technologies, also including devices, gadgets, machines, robots and tech oriented performances. The aim of the triennial international exhibition Device_art is to present the creative tendencies at the junction of art and design, gadget-hack. There is no fixed subject or theme the proposed works should refer to, nor is it necessary for the works to have an exclusively artistic aspect. Device_art is a comparative research project which, alongside local production, presents a particular international device art scene. exhibition location: Zagreb, Prague
