DARE, 2003 Fabrica Custom software, video cameras Designed for Moving Image by Fabrica, Benetton's design and communication research center in Treviso Italy, DARE consists of four computer-based artworksDraw, Face, Grid, and Modelformed by images, gestures, and drawings input by visitors during the course of the installation. The title DARE refers both to the Italian verb "to give" and the English verb "to be bold." DARE connects the 'now' of play with the 'then' of narrative, and, in doing so, blurs the line between author and audience. DARE is presented with support from Benetton. Related Links: Fabrica |

Liquid Time Series: New York, 2002 * Camille Utterback C++, Quicktime While Utterback was an Interval Research fellow at New York University's Interactive Telecommunications Program, she co-invented a patent in video tracking technology. This technology is used in much of her work like Liquid Time. In this series a stored video sequence is splintered in time based on movement occurring in front of it. This movement is captured using an overhead video camera and processed by Utterback's tracking technology. As viewers move towards the projection screen they advance the video sequence forward in time, but only in the area of the screen directly in front of them. Prior versions of Liquid Time captured the cabling of the Brooklyn Bridge, the streets of Tokyo and Washington Square Park. In 2002, Utterback was named one of the 100 top innovators under thirty-five by MIT's Technology Review magazine.

Potent Objects, 2003, Prototypes* Camille Utterback and Adam Chapman Custom electronics, programming, embedded software Potent Objects playfully examines they way we ascribe emotion to inanimate technologies. The five prototype reactive objects shown here use motion sensors and video cameras to gauge a viewer's actions and then respond accordingly. Potent Objects parallels current research in 'affective computing,' in which the capability of sensing and conveying emotion is built into computing devices. The work suggests that, though our machines may seem to be becoming more like us, the truth could be just the opposite. * Only two installations are currently on display in the Museum lobby: BALANCE and SHAKEN. |

Mumblehop, 2002 * Mumbleboy (Kinya Hanada) and Karl Ackermann Macromedia Flash, Custom Floor Pad Created for this exhibition at the American Museum of the Moving Image, Mumblehop uses the form and interface of a simple videogame. By stepping on floor sensors similar to those used for dance-controlled videogames, players advance through various levels. Mumbleboy and Ackermann work in a distinct style characterized by child-like cut outs and solid blocks of color. They are principals of the online animation and art collaborative Milky Elephant.
