Meditation #5
I don’t know… I struggled with this assignment. Math is already a challenge for me (though I like to code, I’m a little math-phobic) let alone being “creative” with math. I understand what we looked at in class and enjoyed watching the math videos linked on the assignment page but applying these concepts in an … Continue reading Meditation #5
Soft Robotics Week 2
I’d like to explore the Cape Sundew plant. This plant has hundreds of small articulating extrusions, each with a sticky bulbous tip. When an insect lands on the plant, those little extremities can fold in on the bug, pushing into the stem, covering it in digestive fluids. In addition to this movement, the plant itself … Continue reading Soft Robotics Week 2

I’ve been spending a lot of time thinking about trash, particularly the trash of Bed-Stuy which I already miss … Continue reading Street Dreaming
Making an Oracle Deck
As I’m writing this, I’m realizing that I may have gone off-roading a little bit in this assignment but perhaps there’s enough connection to make it valid? Hopefully… The most fascinating part of tarot to me is the relationship between the reader and the recipient. I think that the quick bond and trust that’s developed … Continue reading Making an Oracle Deck
ICM Final – Choose Your Own Adventure
For my final I’d like to create a short sci-fi story of the “choose your own adventure” variety with a coded accompaniment! The final presentation of this idea will be a little physical bound book that has a corresponding p5 sketch. This sketch will feature several kinds of code interactions that will be paired with … Continue reading ICM Final – Choose Your Own Adventure
