Digital Clay

My Ideation Idea is to create a series of discrete units that are able to sense their position in relation to the ones around them and then, comunicate this data back to a CAD program on the computer.

Experience
I have been drawing and painting from a young age. I also enjoy knitting and crocheting, especially gloves. I typically do not work from patterns, which is why I feel that I have more experience fabricating than designing. I've undertaken small wearable electronic projects and would like to undertake more of them. I feel very comfortable coding and I am confident I would be able to pick up any new language I would need fairly quickly.

Why
My work on t(ether) has made me become more interested in creating multi-user interfaces that allow users to create art through collaboration. I am especially interested in the applications of collaboration to animation. I would like to continue extending the the t(ether) system, and I would also like to explore how physical animation (stop-motion) can borrow ideas from digital animation (like key-framing). I would also like to see how t(ether) could be augmented by adding virtual or physical tools, like a paint-brush that could be used to paint the objects.
