Video conference calls replaced in-person meetings on a large scale in a short amount of time. Most software tries to mimic a conversation bus actually either forces people into the spotlight and into monologues or off to the side into silence. One to one communication allows a user to concentrate on the (one) other, but group meetings blur the personalities and pigeonhole expression into a cookie-cutter shape of what is technically efficient and socially barely tolerable. The final project in this course seeks to explore different representations in synchronous online group communication. | |||
To shift the perception data will be gathered from multiple (ambient) sources. This means tapping into public data sets for broad context. It also means gathering hyper-local/personal data via an arduino or similar microcontroller (probably ESP8266) for sensing the individual. These data streams will be combined to produce a visual output using jitter. This result aims to represent the other humans in a manner to emphasize personality and not the emulation of the technicality in face to face exchanges. | |||
