Looking Outwards Number 2
Emily Gobeille is the first name I am going to mention today. (Sorry this is a bit late). Anyway, Emily is a great artist and combines traditional methods with interactive computational media. I recommend browsing around on her website – a lot of her projects just show images from stills of different projects she has done, but even the photo references are quirky and beautiful!
Check out the thesis website here : http://a.parsons.edu/~emily/thesis/ (I guess she went to parsons?) Anyway, the “animations” section shows some really nice experiments that she tried out.

Jussi Angesleva and Ross Cooper are the creators of “Last Clock” – a iPAD app that uses what you are doing to show time in a more visual way.

I think that the most interesting part of the clock is to compare images that it creates in different settings. Below are images that the clock made in different places.
Let the camera stair at your face, and see what your clock will look like!

Paul Slocum is really into 80s technology, so he bought it an iPOD app where you can play around on a little piano. But, this piano is more than just a piano – you can add samples from recordings and beats that are on the app. It looks like a really fun way to make some music on your iPod.

On a side note, I’m not sure why my video embedding isn’t working!
