5. An example of planting a tree using recyclable material
6. The plant can be used as a decoration in home or office
7. Any space can be use to plant the tree. It doesn’t have to be in the large area
8. Interactive installation
Webcam will be used for audience interact with
installation
Concept = space
Virtually create an agriculture
12. Geographical
• Agriculture usually been practice in rural area only
because of land area.
• In city have limited land area. Full with building and
road.
14. Storyboard
• Space is one of the problem from my topic, urban
agriculture. My project is basically an interactive
installation art. The installation is to create a virtual urban
agriculture.
• A white prop represent an urban city. The prop will be a few
boxes(buildings). In upper of the prop there will be
a projector and a webcam. Projector will be projecting
a video/animation from the object detected through
webcam. The object will be small stone with different
color. From the different stone color, a different
video/animation will appear. The video/animation will be
based on a few kinds of vegetables and fruit. The small
stone is used to represent a seed
15. A projector and webcam is Place the stone with different
place above the prop so color on top of the prop.
webcam can detect the stone
and play the video/animation
16. Webcam will detect the stone. A projector will project the
video/animation as the stone is
detected.
19. Software & Tools
• Processing
• Adobe Flash
• Webcam
• Projector
o The software & tools might have some changes in the future
20. Urban agriculture is involving food growing and keeping animal in
urban or built-up areas. The major factor why urban agriculture are
rarely seen because of space.
Agro space is an installation art that stimulates the space, where the
audience can create their own space for the plant growing. The concept
of the installation is to create a virtual urban agriculture. The audience
can place the seed (small stone) in to the city (prop) where the plant
can growth. The seed (small stone) will growth into the tree
(video/animation). Through this the audience can experience in
creating a virtual urban agriculture. As they can create their own space
for agriculture.
