(01) — The project

From a distance the image is an abstract texture; up close it becomes a recognisable object.

(02) — Context

A smooth transition tied to the viewer’s distance.

(03) — Process

Ultrasonic sensors on Arduino, and TouchDesigner mapping distance to a pre-rendered transition.

Details

  • 01Distance-driven interaction via proximity sensors
  • 02Texture-to-subject transitions programmed in TouchDesigner
  • 03Modular, site-independent exhibition concept
  • 04Optional interactive sound layer
