A Few More Digital to Physical Art Projects


Here are a few more digital to physical (and vice versa) projects. The first was a project referred to me by Gianni called 'Listening Post'. This project is another example of a digital to physical art project. It works by displaying both visually and audibly, content from the web that was posted seconds before being displayed. It is passed through a variety of filtering mechanisms and they appear on 231 text displays and a sound system.

This project enables digital web content to displayed both visually and audibly into a physical environment. The Video Below demonstrates how the project works fully and how it displays the content.


This project as well as the projects in the previous post gave me the idea of using twitter to create a physical to digital project that holds the context of creating digital content using the surrounding physical environment and by using in particular public environments to create the public content category that twitter and tweets fall into. The idea of tweeting being a public act for all to see and to involve with on the web could involve the idea of using a public physical environment to create digital public content such as twitter tweets.

I will explain more in my next post...
