Recommendation: ITP Winter Show: Smoke
By UNCOOLKIDS on Tuesday, December 13th, 2005
The Interactive Telecommunications Program is having their winter show on Sunday and Monday. Prepare to be inspired. One of the projects that’s not to be missed:
“Smoke is a window display where a sensor detects cigarette smoke and transforms a recorded video of a solo dance piece. Designed to be installed in a window outside a dance studio or performance space, Smoke is motivated by and reflects upon the prevalence of smoking in the dance community.”
“Smoke is made up of a custom smoke sensor housed in a small device attached to the outside of a display window. The device senses a variety of gases, including cigarette smoke, and communicates the presence of the gas to a second sensor inside the window. A PC inside the window runs a custom application that alters the appearance of a dance video piece as more or less gas is detected.”
Smoke will be on display on the corner of Waverly and Broadway on Sunday from 2-6 and Monday from 5-9.
