Prototyping Practice

October 2021


  • In October 2021, I started using Arduino for the first time, during a workshop with Dennis de Bel. During a workshop, we started with a very basic unoficial arduino kit, a led, a motor, and a sensor. After making a few connections, we got to understand a bit how it works. It was from that point that I started getting more and more familiar with Arduino and work with ultrasonic sensors.

November 2021


  • During the month of November, I started working with multiple sensors at the same time in order to map the position of an obstacle on a wider detection range.

December 2021


  • In December, after being a lot more confortable with Arduino, I investigated the possibilty to transmit the values detected by the sensors and Arduino to P5.js, by making a serial communication (with P5.serialcontrol). By doing so, I could gain more freedom in terms of visual/sound feedbacks. However, the serial communication between Arduino and P5.js was in stand by for a very long time, because I didn't know (yet) how to send the values of more than one sensor.
  • During the Window exhibition at Buitenboel, I created micro-installation composed of a LCD screen and sensor(s) inviting users/visitors to change the color of the screen and displayed messages by getting closer from the window.

February 2022


  • In February, we created a small hybrid reality quest with Louisa. For this occasion, I created a mini-game with a sensor setup, allowing players to unlock a secret password by taking the good positions in space.

March 2022


  • In March 2022, I started designing differents stages/steps for the installation. The installation requires once again the player to hold on on specific position in order to unlock new stages.


Stage 0
The subject is located too far away
Stage 0
The subject is well located and will hold position to reach next stage
Stage 1
The subject unlocked Stage 1 and will hold position to reach next stage
Stage 2
The subject unlocked Stage 2 and is located too close
Stage 3
The subject unlocked Stage 3 and need to get closer
Transition Stage
The subject unlocked all stage and needs to wait the countdown for following steps

April 2022


  • In April, I started designing the final interfaces for my installation. The idea was to refer to the differents contexts of surveillance and self-surveillance evoked in my thesis.
  • Luckily, Joseph explained to me how to make the serial communication between Arduino and P5.Js with more than one sensor value, by splitting the data in many parts.

Captcha:
one action needed moving forward, backward or standing still next stage unlock after action done and short animation
Self Tracking:
no interaction needed visitor must stand still until one of the goal is completed
Self Tracking:
no interaction needed visitor must stand still until one of the goal is completed
Slot Machine:
no interactions needed transition between 2 stages determines randomly the next stage displayed when nobody detected
Social Live:
no interaction needed visitor must stand still until money goal is completed
Stock Ticket:
no interactions needed displayed when nobody detected



















May 2022


  • In May, I started considering to transiting from a small to a bigger screen for the grad show. I also updated the position of the different sensors.

Graduation Work: Count On Me


Count On Me

"Count On Me" is an interactive data collector that rewards your attention span and responsiveness in crypto-currency. In order to maximize profits, you will need to accurately position yourself in the space and pay attention to the instructions. Each micro-task performed allows the visitor to get extra payouts and unlock different stages ranging from stock ticker interfaces, wellness applications, gambling games, captchas, streaming platforms, self-checkouts, eg. Once ready to leave, the visitor can convert its crypto-earnings into euros by refering to a randomly assigned conversion rate.
