PHOTON makes you play with laser-strings

We already spotted Jayson Haebich for some of his former creations, which often involve laser and interaction. This Australian artist has recently presented a clever way to track somebody's moves interacting with a laser thanks to fog and a well-used Kinect. He has now turned it into a complete installation, "PHOTON", allowing the audience to play as if the lasers where the strings of an instrument. Moreover, this is not only a technical achievement but also a visual one. ...

BILL, created by Emmanuel Le Cerf in Digitalarti's Artlab

Emmanuel Le Cerf created BILL from a simple paper bill. It deals with a piece of material supposed to last on the long-term, which is turned into a never ending show. Artist Emmanuel Le Cerf used a basic bill paper. Originally white, this paper becomes blue when touched by heat. If over-exposed to heat, the paper is totally blue. If a new heat comes close to the blue paper, it lets a white and ephemeral mark. This is the unexpected property Emmanuel used for BILL. He describes how: Bi...

Transits, by Ursula Damm

Ursula Damm had a nice idea : depict the flow of traffic in Basel, from a commuter's perspective. She teamed up with Matthias Weber (preliminary work), Martin Schneider (code) and Max Netter (sound) to produce a one-hour-long video. This video is an interesting and original way to deal with the time going-by, its too slow and too long length to be basically filmed and not to use the ever-present time-lapse/stop-motion.   You liked it ?

Lulu White created by Jason Cook in Digitalarti's Artlab

Lulu White, created by Jason Cook (2012) in the Digitalarti Artlab The work is one in a series titled object avatar, investigations in body applied sensors to manipulate sculptural objects at long distance. As robotics and electronics are commonly conceived as masculine in their form and function, touch sensitive responds to this cliché by employing cabaret paraphernalia to test the androgynous and seductive capacities of the machine. What at first encounter seems an individual inter...

Art takes over industrial robots

Among the links between art and technology that digital arts embody, there are unexpected tools. For instance : the typical assembly line industrial robots. Symbol of mass-production, repetition, copying, they do not belong to the artists palette. (a Comau industrial robot - image source) Artists facing such an unusual object are often tempted, got inspired... and the quiet and repetitive robot unveils an unexpected potential. A robot may feel, but has no feeling, it expresses nothing, ha...
