MEKSTENSION - (c) Gabriel Dunne 2009

Abstract

Visual Software to be used stop animation animation tool. Software allows an animator to extends geometric objects into space and modify their parameters. Animation optomised for a display resolution of 2560 x 1600

Created at Mekanism for a lofi/hifi stop-motion opener for CAT 2011 conference.

Cabspotting 2008/07/05

Using realtime GPS data to visualize the journeys of Yellow Cabs in San Francisco

“Cabspotting” San Francisco Taxi-Cab Visualization

Among the first uses of realtime data in a visualization of any kind on the web, Cabspotting was shown in the Design and the Elastic Mind exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art in 2008, was shown at NighTime Dreamreal at the Shanghai Power Station of Art (November 2013–March 2014), and is now in the permanent collection of MoMA. In these frame-by-frame maps of the locations of cabs in the Bay Area, taken from GPS data from Yellow Cabs in San Francisco, the city pulses like a beating heart.

Scott Snibbe originally invited Stamen Design to collaborate with him on this project. It was part of a research project called Invisible Dynamics, sponsored by The Exploratorium of San Francisco.

Rattle 2008/05/02

Rattle software synth controller proof-of-concept

A digital software rattle experiment. Rattles and shakers can be instanced and embedded into one another, allowing for a wide rage of sensitivity, sonic subtlety, and layers when making sound. Interaction with the digital rattle done through wii-mote. Rattle impulses trigger a synth via OSC, triggering ChucK or Ableton Live.

Various experiments created with C++, Processing, ChucK, Ableton Live, MaxMSP
