Camera Restricta is a speculative design of a new kind of camera. It locates itself via GPS and searches online for photos that have been geotagged nearby. If the camera decides that too many photos have been taken at your location, it retracts the shutter and blocks the viewfinder. You can't take any more pictures here. Nowadays digital photography causes a infinite stream of imagery. Camera Restricta could be a controversial tech product, promising unique pictures by preventing the user from contributing to the overflow of generic digital imagery. It is a interesting Thought, where i can relate too as a photographer.
Magnetoceptia, is a serie of antenna-based costumes for performance and installation together with Patrizia Ruthensteiner. The self made antenna picks up electromagnetic fields and translate them into electronic sounds. For the antennas she uses branches, bamboo, apples etc. combined with open electronics. The copper wire is wound into different patterns into the constume, the project an investigation on different properties of natural and technological materials. What I really like about this project is here choice voor design. But also here research (Magnetoceptia) is very nice.
The project I did at the practice Hacking relateds to the subject of this semester. The assignment was to discover the hidden electromagnetic spectrum. The focus was on how to get the electrical activity inside of plants as a main source of data. That gives a insight into processes happening inside the plant and see its reaction to its environment. We have tried to capture this signals with a Arduino and made a visualization in processing. Ivan Henriques is a artist who is researching the balance between nature and technology – He believes nature is a very important factor for the development of our technological world. Jurema Action Plant is an interactive bio-machine. Like machines and animals, the plants have an electrical signal traveling inside them. If you touch te plant, the machine will move away from you. It is too explore new ways of communication and co-relation between humans, living organism and a machine. What I like about the research and project from Henriques is that he takes nature as an inspiration. nature and technology sounds like two extreme and combined them into one piece creates a interesting friction. electric signals is a natural phenomenon but because you can not perceive, it feels like fiction. The part that makes it interesting for me as a imagemaker is too visualizes this signals/waves.
