Deadlines

  • I have no upcoming deadlines worth mentioning. Other then some grad school bills.

Projects

  • I'm working on some top secret projects. Can't talk about them.

Summary

I’m looking to develop a series of workshops that will provide a foundation for the design of interactive installations. It is an exercise that will allow me to investigate my design process and involve my self in the interaction/experience design community.

Workshop 01: Interaction Wire Framing + Story Boarding

This stage defines the limitations and possibilities of the installation. This exercise should be the basis for a dynamic diagram. I should look into how other design profession initiate and manage their creative process.

Workshop 02: Interaction Concept Development

The workshop will introduce the use of processing as a tool for interaction concept development. I can foresee the introduction of other software platforms….This workshop will have three objectives. The first part will provide a survey of recently built interactive installations. The second part will introduce basic programing concepts that is useful for creating dynamic diagrams. The last portion will and provide a case project, that will allow students to program a new behavior for a previously built installation.
