I’m proud to announce that our first game in collaboration with Hanazuki has just been launched. The game plays an important role in an installation that Hanazuki did for the Cinekid festival.

Working with the internet legend Niko Stumpo has been a delight, so we definitely are not going to stop at one game, we are already cooking up the next one

Barcinski & Jeanjean at Impakt Festival 2008

For Impakt Festival 2008 we created a visualization for the Hybrid Playground. The visualization was part of the participative installation named “Gifted”, concept of which comes from netniet.org. Same as our Toilet at FITC, this installation uses the Roomware Server to detect the presence of visitors by their Bluetooth phone.

FITC Installation Online Simulation & Source Code

Barcinski & Jeanjean — Sun, 20 Apr 2008 15:39:00 +0000

This is a modified version of our interactive installation featured at FITC Amsterdam. The actual bluetooth presence service has been replaced by a scripted simulator which randomly adds and removes people from the installation. Enter your name in the popup field in the bottom and you will be playing an instrument too!

As promised before the source of this installation can be downloaded here. Feel free to modify and use the source. All we ask is, if you do use it, document it somehow and post a comment back here. Thanx.

Interactive Installation at FITC Amsterdam

Barcinski & Jeanjean — Sat, 23 Feb 2008 22:41:19 +0000

We are proud to announce our interactive installation at the FITC Amsterdam event. The installation will be installed in the Felix Meritis building in Amsterdam during the whole 3 days of the conference (Feb 24 – Feb 26) and is also accessible to visitors without tickets for FITC. So, if you missed out on the tickets before they sold out, you can still experience it.

The toilet-space will be reacting to the presence of Bluetooth devices. Each person entering with a Bluetooth device will add a new randomly selected instrument to the music. Which means that whenever nobody is present, no music is playing. The more people present, the more instruments will form the music.

The musical elements are specifically composed for this installation. The arrangement, however, is yet to be made by the visitors to the toilets.

The graphical part of the installation visualizes the presence of Bluetooth devices and displays which instrument has been assigned to which person. This way, each one can see and identify which instrument he or she is playing in the arrangement.

The installation uses the Roomware server to acquire a list of detected Bluetooth devices and the 3D visualization is built with Papervision3D.

So head off to FITC Amsterdam, switch on your Bluetooth and join the music. More in a next post.
