Glow-Modulated Information: Oscillating Simple Displays

22. Mai 2014, 11.00 Uhr IC Lecture Room, Kollegiumgasse 2, 3. OG

Gastvortrag von Daniel Wessolek bei Interface Cultures.

We define simple displays as computer-controlled, dimmable light sources, mostly stripped of color, but focused strongly on the temporal aspect. These 1-pixel or a volumetric displays are certainly limited, but nevertheless: What is the potential of brightness changes over time and how can we create content for these simple displays?
