But then the term Machine Art evolved — people started appreciating the machine made product withought considering its practical use, but only considering the aesthetic appearance. As Machine … Continue reading Reading Reflection2: Machine Art & Kinetic Art
Project Description This project is a picture of Chinese Apsaras embroidered on canvas with El wires. With programming to make it light up/fade, it creates a short light performance when connecting with power. Light wires are often associated with hardcore and emerging techonology. However, I was thinking of the possibilities of combining of light and … Continue reading Kinetic Light: Project2 – Apsaras
In this assignment, we used 3 DMX PAR lights to create a light composition. Since our light is not able to move, and we have 3 of them, we thought of making a composition simply playing with placing lights in different positions in the space. Then we thought of the traditional Chinese sundial, where … Continue reading Assignment3: Sundial
Plane Rotation Movement: Initially, we used the Unity physics engine to do the rotation movement, adding centripetal force to the plane. However, only using the “add force” method makes the movement hard to control when put into practice. So we found a simpler and easy-to-understand way — applying the transform function to do the … Continue reading 2D Game Progress Report
