project ideas

1. thatthey – an iPad game.

UI design for my thesis in collaboration with Paul Cheng.
The game is focused on local multiplayer context and tablet devices. As gestural two player game, player have to hold the same device at the same time to play the game.

The chance to do this project for this class would also be a chance to design UI for future proposal in online/wireless multiplayer context for phone/small touch screen devices.

PARTIcipatory

UI design for my collaboration with Qiuyi Wu for AVsys and Sensemaker class finals.
PARTI is a participatory mobile data collection app for audio/visual performance in context of party and concert.

The app collect and feed user’s movement track by device’s accelerometer to the server (we are using Cosm for prototyping, server-side application might require for more powerful and realtime system.) The data would then parse live by VJ/performer to make a live visual that react to participant’s movement. Each individual would be represented as a particles on the environment. VJ would have a chance to perform a visual piece live with live feed data from participant by conduct how the data.

After the event, the data collected then can be playback in the web interface. You can see how dynamic the event was and how the audience was moved by the performance, literrally 🙂

3. sdub – listening device

Sdub is a sonic frameworks for ‘listening to’ data. The app allow user to access different data available on the internet and locally on the device and allow the user to make a composition of how the data and audio should interact.

This project was my final project for Major Studio 2. more info: interactivity.tothong.com
