Next week I’m not teaching, so instead I want you to work on the exercises given below. You will have a teaching assistant and maybe sometimes Mosse to help out. Also, the Urban Interface conference is warmly recommended. It’s free, but you should sign up for it in advance.
Exercises for week 37
- Social software: Sign up for Flickr. Join the AHO Interaction Design group. Post a link to your blog there.
- Social software: Find 3 blogs you like that are related to interaction design. Post the links to the AHO Interaction Design group. Set up a feedreader like Google Reader, Newsgator or similar and subscribe to the feeds of those blogs.
- Random composition (EX02): Create two compositions. One should be based on principle of order and regularity. The other should manifest chaos. Be particular about color. Consider transparency as a way to add depth. Save a representative image from each sketch and post them to Flickr. Prefix the filename with “EX02″.
- User interaction (EX03): Create a drawing tool where the gesture of the user is used to draw images. Don’t be literal, but rather interpret the user’s input to control a dynamic drawing system. The user should still have a sense of control, however. Draw a representative image and post them to Flickr. Prefix the filename with “EX03″
