Making is Connecting
For my second year project please look at Making is Connecting 2016
Inspiration and Own Work
Breakfast Glove
One of my own projects together with Joëlle was the breakfast glove for paper strings and electronic things. We wanted to make a freeze frame high five device. A song will play when you high five each other, but only if you stand still during the song. Check the video here:Breakfast Glove
Dunes
Studio Roosengaarde's Dune Project was a project here in Rotterdam with lights that responded to users walking next to them.
Radio Experiments
Week 1
With the tuner I had the idea of trying to find 'weird' noises and translating them into more humane sounds. So instead of looking for actual voices, I wanted to create them myself. I tried to do this with the program Audacity, using effects like Pitch etc.
Original Sound File: First Test & Edited Sound File: First Test
The first test I mostly played with pitch, I tried to remove the static and see if that created a human feeling. It didn't, in my opinion. Instead it just sounded more flat.
Original Sound File: White Noise & Edited Sound File: White Noise Talking
Next, I tried to find a weak signal, where maybe you couid almost here a conversation but would be too confusing. It already begins to sound more human, yet some stretches of the 'conversation' have this glitchy sound to them that I couldn't get rid of. But just removing the noise and changing the pitch really helped.
Original: Noise & Edited: Noise in Deep Space
This was a 'happy accident'. Trying to make this noise more human I instead got the sound of a starship in deep space... I changed the pitch to a very low sound and changed the speed of the noise. This, together with messing around with the bass and treble (I was actually trying to decrease the bass) got this humming space sound.
Imaginary Communication Devices
Workshop
Assignment
For the assignment I worked together with Naomi van Maasakkers. For inspiration we decided to look into the past instead of into the future and looked up a database of sci-fi devices in books from the 40s to the 70s. We used the site Technovelgy for this.
