DUNE is the public interactive landscape that interacts with human behavior. This hybrid of nature and technology is composed of large amounts of fibers that brighten according to the sounds and motion of passing visitors. Evolving through several contexts DUNE 4.1 enhances social interactions in the public pedestrian Maastunnel, commissioned by the Rotterdam City of Architecture. The 60 meter permanent DUNE 4.2, situated alongside the Maas River in Rotterdam (NL), utilizes fewer than 60 watts of energy. Within this setting, Rotterdam citizens enjoy their daily “walk of light”. DUNE X is the interactive landscape of light placed in the dark Dogleg tunnel at the 18th Art Biennale of Sydney. Filled with hundreds interactive lights and sounds DUNE investigates nature in a futuristic relation with urban space. Specifications: 2006-2012.

Week 1- Research

This week I just started research a variety of different interactive projects from the Creative Applications website.

I found ShadowPlay interesting because you can actually see people physically interacting with these lights and shapes. I think that something similar to this could be cool for my final project.

The Grix uses a very simple idea of pixel shape, colour which users can then make into their own creative shape. I liked this idea because the idea behind it is very simple and was made into something really interesting and fun.
