TOPIC
Colorscope
BACKGROUND
The kaleidoscope is a tube of mirrors with coloured objects. As the user looks through one end, light enters the other and creates beautiful patterns as reflections bounces off the mirrors.
IDEATION & CONCEPT
Colorscope is an installation of a projection on the wall that acts as a kaleidoscope. As the webcam detects movement of a person passing by, the patterns changes in accordance to their body and hand movement.
DESIGN APPROACH
The design will include kaleidoscope patterns being projected. A webcam will detect the motions of the subject and will change in accordance to the direction of their movement.
AIM
To further enhance the development of the audience's perspective about traditional methods with new media.
To inject an aesthetic experience on the audiences' sub conscience.

Proposal III (Refine)
You can view the previous proposal, here.
PROJECT TITLE: Colorscope
BACKGROUND
The kaleidoscope is a tube of mirrors with coloured objects. As the user looks through one end, light enters the other and creates beautiful patterns as reflections bounces off the mirrors.
IDEATION & CONCEPT
Colorscope is an installation of a projection on the wall that acts as a kaleidoscope (with portraits of people added to the kaleidoscope design). As the webcam detects movement of a person passing by, the design on the wall changes.
MOTIVATION
From my understanding, motion is the action of moving from a point in space to another. Since action is motivated by a reaction of certain stimulus, thus, color could greatly affect that reaction and motivation. Therefore, it is important to study these relationships between color and motion to better understand and utilize its functions.
DESIGN APPROACH
The design will include a kaleidoscope-type design projected on the wall. A webcam will detect the motion or movements of the subject and will change in accordance to their speed and height. Studies on the relation of human motion and colors will be applied to this project.
AIM & OBJECTIVE
To promote positive emotions to the audience.
To create distinguishable variations depending on the movement detected.
To inject an aesthetic experience on the audiences' sub conscience.
To further enhance the development of the audience's perspective about abstract art.

Proposal III
Topic: Colors.
Colors is an installation of a projection on the wall that acts as a kaleidoscope. When the webcam detects movement of a person passing, the design on the wall changes.
The objective:
To create artform based on the kaleidoscope.
To create distinguishable variations depending on the movement detected.
To inject an aesthetic experience on the audiences' sub conscience.
To further enhance the development of the audience's perspective about abstract art.
The idea was inspired by a video I came across Vimeo!

Proposal II
Topic: Music As One.
I was inspired by a video I found on YouTube by Candice Breitz(view video below).
The installation involves the users' participation. Users were picked and given a chance to re-perform in a professional studio to Madonna songs. The users decide what to wear, whether they want to dance, whether they want to follow the lead or back-up vocals, and so on as the video records their movements. Through this process, the singers produce an acappella version the song.
The idea that I'd like to propose is a little different from Candice's.
Instead of recording the users' voices, I intend on recording only the visuals of the user's movement, miming and dancing to the song. The videos will then be compiled. Then, random scenes of the overall compilation will be played throughout the song projected on a screen.
Reasons for this installation is to prove that there is no boundaries when it comes to music and that it is a culture that is accepted from around the world.

Proposal I
Topic: Dracula: A History
The tale of vampires has become popular in the modern culture, especially in the entertainment industry. We've seen and heard the tales of vampires that was played numerous times on television and in theaters. But where did the original story originated from?
In order to understand pop culture, we need to know the history of the origins. Coming from the multimedia field, it's important to know what is the current big thing in pop culture in order to keep the viewers entertained. By going through history, it serves as a basis of knowledge and ideas.
With so many modern variations and deviations of the vampire story, I plan to immerse the users into the original legend of the Dracula, as an appreciation for history.
The method I plan to use for this installation is by applying anaglyph photography. Two projectors project the red and blue layers onto the canvas and users are enabled to wear 3D glasses in order to view the projection clearly.
This can be used as a different approach of gaining knowledge to make an impact on the user.
