Prototype » Physical Interface design - Lugano
Just like the musical tool Reactable, which incorporates pattern-recognition to control sounds and audio effects, this workshop will be directed to create substitute interfaces for devices such as: TV, Radio and Audio devices; or for services like browsing Flickr’s photos, YouTube’s videos and I-tunes on local machines. Based on “Reactivision”, students will make use of a platform created by Nastypixel as a rapid prototyping tool. This tool enables students to swiftly mold interfaces for a wide variety of purposes. Since our workshop is short in time - students will create mock-ups such as a visual downscale model for the computer screen, showing the behaviour of such physical devices as they would actually function. Alternatively, students will learn to “hack” physical interfaces (like TV remote controls) and adjust their behaviour from the computer. As open-source methods of development become a new standard, students will literally open up the makings of interfaces to expose their mechanisms of operation. Combining both physical and conceptual interface ideas, students will learn ways to rapid prototype their ideas in the future.
