Pravin Sathe - Long Form

Embedded Information

August 4, 2008 3:07 PM

I love wooster collective, a blog that follows street art. While perusing some of the great imagery there I began to think of how you could "reshape" the spaces around you using elements other than just paint/chalk.

Edina Tokodi did it with moss.

I was thinking sound. By hacking an mp3 player (that has a record function as well?), connecting some small speakers and hooking it up to an IR sensor you could get some interesting interactions between passerbys and an inanimate object.

Take a construction site in my neighborhood that has small "portholes" through which local residents peer into the beginnings of new condos. Why not have music or a conversation play as a viewer walks up to the porthole?

If the mp3 player has a record button, give the viewer an opportunity to leave a short message.

It's like secret messages for the digital age.
