they’re online for a while, but here are the videos about the twitter art projects “tweetleak” and “tweetscreen” on vimeo:
“tweetleak” is an monolithic object printing tweets written near its location
“tweetscreen” is a networked installation, projecting local tweets in a public space.
both objects notify the author of the tweet that his tweet was “published”
heres the status quo of the software:
what it does: it repeatedly loads the flickr rss feed, downlaods al photos, displays them in a stream (top part).
if a photo is tagged with significant tags, it displays it in large size, and decomposes it into particles of red, green and blue color, which fall down to three attractors.
the color values are then passed to our DIY pixel dispenser.
written in processing using the proXML library, the traer.physics library and the arduino library
after discussion in class, we found it very important to depict the decomposition process. so, instead of abstract squares or circles, we are going to animate single pixels, like in a particle system.
also, the stream will move horizontally, like it passes by your sight.
