Mermaids do not exist? Interactive Costumes do!
In cooperation with the Kinder- & Jugendballett in Altenburg we are going to create two interactive costumes for an underwater topic. Next to soft-/hardware development and crafting the costume, the main research focus lies on the power of e-textiles in performance arts. Technologies used include Arduino LilyPad, Processing/Java, Neopixels, conductive/resistive fabrics and threads. The project will be completed by a qualitative user study (attending rehearsals, test sessions with dancers, interviewing staff). The costumes will be used on stage in June 2017.

Architectural Sized Interfaces
The aim of this project is the design and implementation of an architectural interface prototype based on sensors from industrial factories and recycled/ repurposed furniture or self-constructed ultra-lightweight and low-cost building structures (popup tents, sails, etc.). Additionally, it should support group interaction and social opportunities for the city scape. To test the interface we will use projection mapping, which has proven able to simulate various media architectural output displays. We plan to setup a lightweight backyard test laboratory in which the interface can be tested on a building façade.

Evaluating behaviour and experience around public interfaces
We will review evaluation methods from User Experience Design, Social Sciences, Architecture and Environmental Psychology. The focus lies on methods for evaluating behaviour and experience in public space. Concepts such as Shared encounters, People as Displays and the relation of user, participant and observer will be explored. Furthermore we will actively explore multimodality and spatial concepts. We then will review evaluation approaches from past projects. In a second step, we design our own evaluation method.

Public Interfaces for Citizen Participation (Die Ermittler - a dialogue on refuge, being strange, and home)
In this project we produced an interactive projection mapping for the Peter Weiss year in 2016. The realization was guided by the renowned pioneer of live public media art Krzysztof Wodiczko. The project was premiered in August 2016 in Weimar during Kunstfest Weimar. The student project collaborates with Anke von der Heide and Timm Burkhardt, and includes students from MediaArchitecture, design and the arts. This project is part of a larger collaboration with the faculty of Arts and Design, Kunstfest Weimar and other partners, in particular local refugees or 'newcomers' to Germany.

PROJEKTE
GridEye infrared array: Advanced low cost sensors
We will combine the panstamp wireless version of the Arduino with a low resolution thermographic camera for distributed sensing and explore standard gesture recognition methods provided by the GR Toolkit using this sensor. The goal is to create multiple wireless modules which stage user behavior in a public space. For module, interface and interaction design we will collaborate with the project group “Designing content for narrative, embedded devices in public space”.
Designing content for narrative, embedded devices in public space
In this project we explore extensively the narrative potential of low-resolution displays. We will use existing prototypes created by prior project students in order to explore the limitations of those and explore possible content dimensions such as generative content, narratives, and metaphors. To evaluate these, little iterative deployment studies in the city of Weimar will be done. In cooperation with the project “GridEye: Advanced infrared camera low cost sensors “ we will develop a new narrative public device and apply our experiences made with low resolution displays.
Exploring Interaction and Evaluation through Game Design for Master CS&M and HCI
In this project, we will learn about and make use of game design and game evaluation methods while creating and prototyping a game of your own and incorporating innovative ideas for user interaction. The first project half will focus on getting to know the literature and methods in this field, in the final half we will design and develop a game that utilizes novel ways of interaction not explored in gaming yet, and conduct an evaluation.

Understanding Users and Use Contexts: Qualitative HCI Research Methods for Master CS&M and HCI
In the project, we learned about common HCI research methods, in particular qualitative methods, for understanding users, use contexts, and users’ interactions with technology. The project had three phases, starting with an intense seminar-style reading and discussing of literature. In this phase the project cooperated with the corresponding seminar. The students also utilized some of the methods in small-scale practical exercises. For our user research, the third and main phase, we decided to study the pervasive game INGRESS. The team developed a research design, planned and conducted a qualitative study of player experience, combining participatory observation and interviews, and analyzed the data to identify themes, oriented by the process of thematic analysis. This led to a publication we later published at ACM MUM 2016.
Orchestrating Sensors and Actuators for the Urban Environment
The digital design of public spaces still is a difficult task. In particular when developing novel interaction scenarios, an early and iterative deployment in the field is necessary so system design can take account of the real-world conditions of the public environment.
To enable a faster prototyping of such scenarios, this class will develop a software server platform in Java, which will enable the orchestration of wireless ‘interaction nodes’.
Similar to the ‘internet of things’ paradigm, a wireless network of interaction nodes is to be created, that works reliably in urban environments over a distance of up to 20 meters.
Instrumentation of Public Space for Social Interaction
Die Entwicklung neuartiger Interaktionsszenarien erfordert einen frühzeitigen und iterativen Einsatz im Feld. Besonders unser Forschungsfeld, der Stadtraum, "funktioniert" anders. Bedingungen des öffentlichen Lebens müssen in das Systemdesign mit einfließen.
Um ein schnelleres Prototyping solcher Szenarien zu ermöglichen, entwickelt dieser Kurs ein Set von drahtlosen Modulen, welche es ermöglichen Sensoren und Aktuatoren (eingebettet in Objekte) im Stadtraum frei zu verteilen. Der somit instrumentierte Raum stellt eine Experimentierplattform für verschiedene Anwendungsfälle dar, die besonders auf soziale Interaktionsaspekte fokussieren.

Exploring Interactive Theatre
This course explores interactive technologies at theatre stages. We build innovative elements for a theatre stage, based on technologies like e.g. Arduino or Kinect. Practical parts of this project include stage design, props and costume design, depending on the final concept ideas. Interdisciplinary teams develop individual solutions for a play.
Additionally, we collaborate with a local theatre and get into contact with theatre professionals in order to bring our project outcomes live on stage. Then we evaluate how our ideas correlate with the production process from rehearsal to performance and how such innovations can enhance theatre performances.

Interactive Costumes – E-textiles made for the Stage
Das Theater ist eines der ältesten Unterhaltungsformate der Menschheit und von Anfang an hatten Kostüme eine wichtige Funktion während den Theateraufführungen. Heutzutage, ist das wachsende Potential von sogenannten E-Textiles und Wearable Computing ein größerwerdendes Thema in der HCI und verwandten Gebieten. Computerisierte Bekleidung kann man bereits in verschiedenen Anwendungsgebieten finden, z.B. im medizinischen Sektor, in der Spieleindustrie oder im Bereich der Performance-Kunst. Trotzdem gibt es kaum Literatur über interaktive Kostüme auf der Theaterbühne.
Im Sommersemester 2014 bieten wir ein Studentenprojekt an, das sich mit genau diesem Thema befasst. Wir explorieren, wie interaktive Kostüme für die Theaterbühne aussehen könnten und welche grundlegenden Anforderungen bestehen. Die Aufgaben und Lehrinhalte in diesem Bereich der Human-Computer Interaction sind vielfältig, sie reichen von Physical Computing über Interaction-Design bis hin zur Performance-Kunst.
Castle Sized Interfaces for Crowds
