Responding to Gesture and Bodies:
Design for Physically Based Interactive Art
Dates: August 14 - 18
Location: Anderson Ranch Art Center, Aspen/Snowmass Colorado
Faculty: Camille Utterback

Concept: In this workshop students will explore digitally based
interactive
art that engages human gesture and bodies. The main goal of the workshop
is
to help students develop a critical context for their own interactive
work,
and to demystify the technologies behind this type of work - expanding
each
studentB9s vocabulary in the type of work he/she can do. Students will
learn
about video tracking technology, working with sensors, potentiometers,
microcontrollers and other forms of input, processing, and output.
Software
used in demonstrations may include Flash, Jitter/Max MSP, Processing,
and
Basic (for microprocessor and sensor control).
