Processing

Fine collection of curious sound objects by Georg Reil and Kathy Scheuring

March 31st, 2010 | Art, Music, Physical computing | No Comments

Things built with Processing and Arduino keep surprising me with creative possibilities. Georg Reil and Kathy Scheuring describe their project, developed in January 2010
at the University of Applied Sciences Würzburg-Schweinfurt (i was born in Würzburg, way to go!!), with the following text:

“The arrangement includes six exceptional exhibits from the world of sounds and acoustics. At first sight looking trivial, each object incorporates a very unique ability.The magical character of each object is accompanied with a little story, almost completely concealing the existence of technical components such as speakers or sensors. Only small connection ports as well as the uniform black finishing point to thier unusual abilities.In form and functionalty all these exhibits pursue John Maeda’s „Simplicity“. They are enjoying to use, they are surprising and one wants to explore and investigate them.”

See for yourself..

Motion Graphics Created with Programming and Music as a Symbiont

February 8th, 2010 | Animation, Motion Design, Music | No Comments

In this article I want to summarize an exploration of digital artworks born and influenced by sound, a collaboration between programmers, artists, musicians and animators. Forms, colours, structures and sculptures generated with programming. I show you my 5 favorites, mostly choosen because of my liking of music by Four Tet,  The Flashbulb and Alva Noto.

For more informations about the theme, tools and tutorials and of course more examples visit this blog www.smashingmagazine.com.

Here for now a fast introduction into the topic, a visualization of  abstract micro graphics and mellow forms evolved by a energized idm sound.

This motion graphic was born by the sound of The Flashbulb.

Flight patterns by Aaron Koblin

May 28th, 2009 | Animation, Art, Data Visualization | No Comments

Artist Aaron Koblin used FAA flight tracking data to create this visualization of U.S air traffic over twenty four hours.
This work was originally developed as a series of experiments for the project “Celestial Mechanics” by colleagues Scott Hessels and Gabriel Dunne at UCLA. FAA data was parsed and plotted using the Processing programming environment.

Check out his Website for a o Google Maps version of the visualization and more interesting Artwork.
