Physical Computing
I've been doing some work with arduino BT, communicating to/from flash and processing. I am particulary interested in the use of mobile phones to send data to arduino.

The project explores the idea of a changing environment by two different dimensions. First, the phylogenical dimension, it takes into consideration the process in which a building perishes and disappears through time. Second, the ontogenical dimension, it examines the physical process that occurs in the site during demolition.
A dynamic datascape informed by the usage log of my personal website. The usage log is essentially a collection of data from the users who visit the website, it shows numerous information, like the time of visit or the number of hits a page has received.
Real objects such as tree branches, leafs and sand, function as an interface between the visitors and the art piece. By moving and repositioning the physical objects in space, the visitors initiate the real-time transformation of a digital landscape, in which mountains emerge, clouds move in the sky and trees grow. Evolutionary processes are inter-connected with the interaction, making the visitors pro-active in the development of the virtual environment.
The Residual Data-Cloud is an application that loads images from a networked source and generates a data-driven three-dimensional form. Images are collected via a digital camera, or a mobile phone, by the author and participants during presentation. The resulting shape, which resembles a cloud of dust, is a metaphor of residual memory immersed and somehow materialized in a real environment.
A web based multi-user interface that produces an evolutionary immersive experience. The design challenges were to identify principles in self-generating networks that could lead to original and spontaneous results and interesting patterns of interaction.
