The 'Red' Performance

The cell
When I start to image the scenario and the relationship of the body surface and context , I link to some scenes of this movie which the motions powerfully change the space by fabric.

OK Go
This MV showed the body play with the different relationship of dance and spatial equipment and then created a interesting performance.

the idea of making a 3D laser scanner

I try to research how to make a laser scanner capturing body motion. I have the idea of using webcan as one of the tools to make it. The idea is inspired by the log-in system of friend's laptop using webcan to scan the face to recognise. After reviewing 'the instructable', I tried to find the websites to make a easier and a prototypical body scanner. I found David-Lasserscanner using the simple way to scan and tried to do it and think how to apply in my project.

The below vedio is from instructable website which is about laser scanning:

Motion Capture

A number of vedio games which I played especial sport game use motion capture to record the body movement. It uses 'the balls' attached on the actor's figure to be sensed then constructs the 3D modle in Maya.

'Skeleton Boy'

Thanks Camille showing this interesting video to us in studio:

Friendly Fires 'Skeleton Boy' by Clemens Habicht from Nexus Productions on Vimeo.
Edgy, monochromatic music video for Friendly Fires, directed by Clemens Habicht. The band were transformed into Skeleton Boys as a nod to the track’s title, with the aid of double-sided sticky tape, fans and trillions of bean bag balls.

The project use the effects of molecule to present the body and music. Amazing it showing the interesting body performance and record the body by the material.(kind of skill of sketching body motion)

Physical Computing

Physical computing explores new ways computers can interact with the physical world. Using non-traditional sensors instead of a standard keyboard and mouse, input such as light, pressure, sound, and body movement trigger programmed responses from a computer. This response can be a virtual or physical event - interacting back with the "real world."

I am thinking the reader has reaction with user. From the data of observation, the reader(drawinger/doctor) using the concpet of physical computing to alter user's body motion.

As the below vedio:

ALTERING THE BODY

BREAKSPEAR HOSPITAL - Curing Environmental illnesses
Cyber-System of Architecture

Three parts:
The User - with the device to record the relationship of the body motion to environment and alter the motion to reflect the environment by the feedback of Observer
The Observer - collect the data of the user's body motion as the information and feedback to user
The Reader (Choreographier) - reorganise and reconfigurate the field of user (the cartography and choreography of landscape)
The idea would be relate to Hertizian Space / Physical Computing / RFID system / ShotCode / Mobile booth and learning from Hmmer's project to tune into and listen to different radio frequencies by using bodies motion.

Therefore, I am thinking the body as my site and there are two interesting schemes.
SITE ONE - the fashion model on the catwalk with Doctor designer(fashion/stage/show/technology/Architect)
As the below video show the performance of Hussein Chalayan's work,
In the fashion show, the model display the fashion works on the catwalk and has kind of interfaces and interactions. However, the designer as the reader controls and reconstruct the show and the works with model.


SITE TWO: Traner of Polo
The polo player as the user to play or learn how to play the game.
The trainer as the observer and reader gives the player and horse feedback to alter the motion and reconfigurate the game by using technology.

Frequency and Volume - Rafael Lozano-Hemmer

This project was shown at The Barbican artgallery
Frequency and Volume enables participants to tune into and listen to different radio frequencies by using their own bodies. A computerised tracking system detects participants' shadows, which are projected on a wall of the exhibition space. The shadows scan the radio waves with their presence and position, while their size controls the volume of the signal.Up to 48 frequencies can be tuned simultaneously and the resulting sound environment forms a composition controlled by people's movements. This piece visualizes the radioelectric spectrum and turns the human body into an antenna. All the receiver equipment used and antennae are exhibited in an adjacent room.

Back to my project, it likes kind of system which i am thinking with the interaction between the user, the observer and the reader (re-constructor of 'space'). It connects the body motion and the location of human with technology effects. Also, the sound environment like the system - the observer give the responses of motion with environment back to the user after collecting the data from the motion of user by using technology. And then, the user can adapt or adjust his motion to the field.

Nomadic active: Mobile and Portable

PROJECT: 'FLEXSPACE TEMPORARY HABITAT'
CONCEPT:

PROTOTYPE: Because human is the most important factor in any habitats, habitats cannot illustrate their value If nobody utilizes it. The concept of this temporary habitat is to use human body as a part of its structure. If nobody is inside, this habitat would collapse and become just a junk. On the other hand, if we dwell in it and use our body as a part of its structure, this junk cardboard can provide a flexible personal space for us. Form and space of this habitat can be adjusted to many patterns depending on different activities.

Multi-Touch Interaction
While touch sensing is commonplace for single points of contact, multi-touch sensing enables a user to interact with a system with more than one finger at a time, as in chording and bi-manual operations. Such sensing devices are inherently also able to accommodate multiple users simultaneously, which is especially useful for larger interaction scenarios such as interactive walls and tabletops.

Topology, often called "flexible geometry,"is characterized and symbolized by the viewpoint that a circle and a triangle are equal.

LUNAR LONGING
In the October 18, 1952, issue of Collier's, von Braun imagines man's first trip to the moon. He sketched out the "orbit-to-orbit space ship," which he designed to transport people from a space station to lunar orbit. The 190-foot- (58-meter-) tall spaceship houses 50 astronauts in its top sphere. The ship carries a radio dish for communication and a "solar mirror" for energy. Von Braun wrote that the sun's heat would vaporize the element mercury to drive a generator.

FUTURE BOUND
"3-Stage Satellite Vehicle" shows a 24-story rocket ship weighing 7,000 tons (the equivalent of about 1,400 elephants).
