This weekend, there were quite a few to do's for next Monday, which has already been described in the last team post. For the different categories, I came up with the following ideas.
Name of the Installation
My suggestions:
Enschedesign
Colour Your City
How to Extend the Installation
There could be a screen and you can pick a letter that you want to design on that screen. Next to the screen a video is running with something that is related to the letter:
E for Eating
N for Nightlife
S for Shopping
C for Culture
H for Home
E for Education
D for Diversity
E for Europe
There could be electronic music because The Netherlands is famous for its DJs and producers. For example, a DJ mix playing in a loop. This would attract people and enhance the fun atmosphere that we want to create. On the downside, it might drive more mature visitors away from our installation.
We could have a night phase. At night, there is a projection mapping of local artworks or of the different sights in Enschede on the installation.
Possible Sponsors
Polaroid: We could take the pictures of the people in front of the letters with a Polaroid camera and give away the pictures for free to the visitors.
Mediamarkt: For the milk glass/hardware
Technologies to Add Input to the Installation
Processing/p5.js --> Draw an image on a screen
Drawing an image on paper and scanning it (colour detection)
Colour detection of the person who stands in front of the letters and adding suitable colours --> Processing
Motion detection --> The LEDs in front of which the person has stood light up and fade again
Online design (p5.js) and upload of the result via the database
Output Technologies
LEDs
Music
The letters could turn --> Servo motor
Instead of using an LED strip, we could use a modular design made of squares like on Marije’s Rubix Cube. And everytime the colour changes, they turn
Projection mapping
Flickering lights
Light intensity (e.g. depending on proximity)
