"La escritura del dios" (2010)
for electric/MIDI guitar, live electronics and interactive video
Stefan Östersjö, guitar
December 4th, 2010
Inter Arts Center, Malmö (Sweden)
The reference is to one of Jorge Luis Borges’ short stories, included in El Aleph. In Borges’ text, an Aztec priest is imprisoned by a spanish conquistador. The priest/magician tries to decipher the spots on the fur of a jaguar in order to find a magic formula that would set him free.
In this piece, the magic formula is constituted by two scales (derived from the tuning of an Aztec flute) used to build the entire musical plot. This formula is then hidden and filtered in different ways, following the processes occurring on the visual level. The interactive video system, reacting to the guitar’s audio and MIDI signal, plays with a granular background of sand (dreamt by the priest in the short story), a fragmented image of the jaguar and a set of symbols taken from the codex Fejérváry-Mayer, an Aztec mauscript containing a sacred calendar.

Jordan Bimm, NOW Magazine:
Geoffrey Shea takes on digital billboards with his interactive music projection piece TRIO. Revellers will be confronted by large projections of three folk musicians jamming, while corresponding audio tracks mix together to create a song. Viewers can dial a number on their mobile devices to change musicians in the trio – there’s a pool of nine, each with a different instrument – and create a new audio mix in the process.
Shea says he chose to showcase folk music because of its politics of participation and inclusion. “Folk was started by people who felt like they had something to say, who wanted to get involved. As a genre, it puts less emphasis on technique, and makes music more accessible.”
While it might seem contradictory to link folk music and high technology, Shea explains that the connection is all about art and democracy. “Everyone is getting creative with digital media these days, so I see media art as the new folk art.”
463 PEOPLE REPORTED DEAD AT CYNETART 2010 !!!http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J3qOobiHw3Y
"Post Mortem" by Jannis Kreft is a mutual multi-death experience for the entire family. People come and die together, reflect about perishability and talk about a taboo to mankind: Death itself.
This is actually the first time I used VVVV and I love it.
BZZZZT – RRRATAZENG – GLIIITSCH – BLINKBLINK – WOOUUUUSCH!
That's how you could describe the generated music-video »INSCT«, i've made for Skyence from Hamburg. It's animated by using VVVV and is edited finally in After Effects.

Als Projekt im Kurs Usability Lab an der Hochschule für Gestaltung entstanden und nun live in Stuttgart zu sehen ist unsere interaktive Schaufensterinstallation mit Kameratracking, Augmented Reality und vvvv. Mit ihr können Passanten Kleidungsstücke aus der Sommerkollektion des Ladens anprobieren.
Das Projekt ist eigentlich nur für einen User Test entstanden (der gut verlaufen ist) und wurde nun doch endlich noch in einem richtigen Laden aufgebaut.
Bespielt werden zwei alte Röhrenmonitore, auf dem unteren ist der Preis und der Name des Kleidungsstückes zu sehen, auf dem oberen ist die eigentliche Installation. Es ist eine Webcams so angeordnet, dass die Handbewegungen möglichst nicht durch andere Passanten gestört werden, eine weitere ermittelt durch Facetracking die richtige Höhe des Bedienenden und passt das Hintergrundvideo der dritten Kamera an die Kleidungsstücke an.
zu finden bei:
Fräulein Sonntag
Inh. Melanie Baur
Paulinenstr. 16
70178 Stuttgart
Schaufensterinstallation läuft erst nach 16 Uhr bei zu starker Sonneneinstrahlung (die alten Röhrenmonitore machen da nich mit ;-))

This project is a prototype for a stationary augmented reality device to analyze a specific surrounding area.
What was our motivation?
Information is everywhere around us. Especially in public space, we are surrounded by tons of information that needs to be revealed. There has been a lot of mobile applications that uses augmented reality to show the invisible data around us. But they all have one problem in common. You always have to have a mobile device and a specific application. So how can we benefit the technology of augmented reality while providing something that can be easily accessed in public space? This question inspired us to build something stationary that works as a cognition amp for better understanding and faster information access of a surrounding area.
Whats the concept?
Our concept describes a stationary communicative point, that can stand in any interesting city spot. It enables the user to see different informations of the surrounding area. The viewable informations are:
- architectural data ( style, architect, what happened in history?, what is the building being used for?, shops, cafes, museum, etc. )
- historical data ( a visual approach to communicate history, adjusting a timeline would change the images to how the area looked at a certain year )
- statistics of the city ( visually related to people that are being tracked by the system )
- window to a partner city ( view another city )
- connecting cities ( communicate with random people from another city in the world )
- navigation ( direction to certain spots in the city )
