Interactive Media Final Projects Show 2007
Posted on December 24, 2007 - Filed Under Interactive Media, Media, Video |

In a display of high-tech ingenuity, on 14 December the 212MC: Interactive Media class held their first ever interactive installation for faculty, friends, and invited guests. For the class, each group of students was tasked with creating an installation using the interactive multimedia software program Max/MSP/Jitter and a variety of sensors and controllers.
The projects were as diverse as the students’ interests - puppets, sound re-mixers, games, and art installations. Some were controlled by Nintendo Wii remotes, bespoke computer keyboards, standard computer mice, while others used sophisticated video tracking, motion detection, and face recognition technology to respond directly to participants.
