Project Proposals
Project Title 1:
• The Artist’s Test
Project Statement of Purpose:
• This is just a game that I thought of that I wanted to implement it (or at least consider it). I want to make a game where one person is given an item that they must draw using a setup similar to the etch-a-sketch. The other players would then have to guess what the drawer is creating. Whoever guesses the item correctly will be given 2 points while the drawer gets 1. The drawer will then be switched out. Whether the points will be kept in game vs. manually is up for question still. The idea just seems fun and it emulates a childhood game my friends and I used to play.
Project Title 2:
• Turf Wars
Project Statement of Purpose:
• This project aims to pit two contenders against each other in order to claim the most “turf”. This project is inspired by the spirit of competition. Being able to channel friendly competitiveness into art helps said art leave an impact on its users. Moreover, it extends the interaction of the art past the user and the art and instead the art becomes a method in which two people can interact. The art becomes a tool, not a showpiece. The way this game would work would be a button pressing competition. Once the game begins players will have to tap their allotted buttons. Depending on how much they press, they will claim more turf which can be visualized through a processing sketch which would look almost like a game of tug of war.
Project Title 3:
• Vocal Art
Project Statement of Purpose:
• This project aims to take someone’s voice and transform it into art. Depending on how loud someone’s voice is, the more “intense” the colors will be. This project is inspired by the concept of collaboration between the spectators of art. What this idea would look like would be a microphone that takes someone’s voice and translates it into colors and shapes. Their mark on the art would remain and someone new would come and add their mark. This project would essentially just show a large number of emotions and feelings shoved into one piece of art.
