The document summarizes an artist's informal project update for an interactive installation. The original concept of allowing viewers to physically interact and affect a projected person's movements was not working. The new concept challenges viewers to question how much they can reveal about themselves through online communication. The interaction involves clicking a mouse to show another viewer a larger slice of video, but at a slower frame rate, representing how online interactions only reveal parts of oneself over time. The artist needs to focus on coding and user testing the new interactive concept.

1. - Informal Final Project Update-

2. Original Concept To create an interactive installationpiecewhere viewers can physically interact and effect the movements of a projected person

3. Where I was == FAIL

4. Where I was == FAIL

5. Where I was == FAIL

6. What Wasn’t Working and What I Learned… • The content was not working • The context of the interaction wasn’t clear• There was nothing compelling for the viewer to interact with • I needed to rethink about the interaction• I needed to clarify my point of view and what I was trying to say

7. New Concept To create an installationpiecewhich challenges the viewers to question how much they are really “seeing” when they communicate online

8. NewQuestions • How much can we really reveal about ourselves through online communication ? • Are there consequences for revealing more of yourself in an online environment? • Is online communication about two people interacting, or is just the sharing of data and pixels?

9. The Slice =

10. Turning This…

11. Into This.

14. More Practical Idea for the Setup

15. Where is the INTERACTION?

16. • When the user clicks their mouse a larger slice of video is shown to the other viewer • However the time at which the next frame appears is slower • Thus, the larger the slice of video you show, the slower the frame rate and less “activity” the other viewer sees

17. Code so far == FML

18. Next Steps • WORK ON CODE!!!!! • USER TEST!!!!! • WORK ON CODE!!!!! • USER TEST!!!!! • WORK ON CODE!!!!! • USER TEST!!!!!
