In the past weeks I've been busy with researching how my wearable can display data. There are three routes to take: the stain, the line or the flock route. I’m looking for ways of translating the parameters: colour, length, applied pressure and pressure duration which I’ve used in my paper models. After trying some work with a LED matrix I decided that is was time to look for a simple way to experiment with the visualisation of the data. | |

The 24 hour London Music Hack Day brought together an impressive group of 'hackers', most of which in one way or another were involved with hi-tech start-ups that make the streaming, selling and/or up-/downloading of digital music files their business.

The event was full of presentations, debates and workshops exploring recent issues in technical and social aspects of hacking cultures, made possible by passionate volunteers who worked day and night, as well international guests of renewed fame. | |

This for example is the case when one monitors incoming sounds while (field) recording, simply because listening through headphones drastically transforms the sonic picture that one gets: the world that you listen to in stereo is a different world ...

| | 18 Aug 2009 - 14:58 / danielle_r Hello Pys60Last week I did some research on Python for mobile devices. I was so enthusiastic about the documentation I found online and the apparent ease of the language that it was also clear to me what Smartphone I would buy. After quite some hesitation I decided to go for the Symbian based Nokia N97. It beat the i-Phone because I’m already used to Nokia, it has a real keyboard, a 5 mega pixel camera and it runs on Symbian. | |

| | 6 Aug 2009 - 09:20 / Harold Schellinx ookoi's iRingg on your iThing!Okay, so let me blab one of our very first ideas for using the iPhone to present sonic creations in a radically different manner. We called it: ookoi's iRingg®. It is ultra-simple. It is particularly brilliant. And it makes essential use of the sometimes almost forgotten fact that the iPhone indeed is also a run-of-the-mill cell phone.

| | 1 Jul 2009 - 17:10 / danielle_r Introduction to a wearable blogI’ve been invited by the Media Art Platform to blog my experiences on developing a wearable during the wearable group at the Digital Lab in Den Bosch, The Netherlands. Together with eight other artists we’ll each be designing and developing our own wearable. We’ll receive artistic support from Anna Maria Cornelia De Gersem and technical support from the lab. | |
