Demo of kinect processing sketches for upcoming show

I found out that certain libraries were not compatible with Windows 7, so I had to rewrite one of them.

Each day has its own pictographic symbol and “headline” that represents the day and its placement within the “week” cycle. These towels are still in progress, and will be stained to appear aged. The antiquity of … Continue reading
Fashion Arsenal
“Fashion Arsenal” is an in progress project exploring themes of open source content on the internet, regulations, 3-D printing, and human rights. Currently there is much debate on ownership rights to M16’s as they have separate lower and upper receivers. Only the lower receiver has to be registered, so individuals have the ability to fashion … Continue reading
