今回の相棒、ルーシー！
フジロック初参加♪

This is a test article written from iphone!

We participated in the art event called Tonbori-Wasshoi ’09(とんぼりワッショイ) on May 3.
In this event, we exhibited SAZAMEKI, a media art which allows you to hear various ambient sounds as you put blocks associated with a sound onto a table.
You can see the photostream on my gallery.

Our conceptual goal is to give an opportunity to realize that ambient sounds we’re hearing everyday and everywhere actually consist of many of sounds.
Although one of sound is clear and much comprehensible, if once they combined with many of them like noises and ambient sounds, we have no idea to recognize from where the sound has come respectively.

SAZAMEKI is a sound generating system, which has a tangible interface for the interactive arrangement of sounds and has headphones allowing users to hear the result.
There are some blocks drawn a picture which indicates a sound what it plays, e.g., car, bldng, train, dog and so on.
You can put them onto the table, then SAZAMEKI starts to play sound by sensing them from camera under the table.
We used FLARToolKit to recognize what kind of block is being on the table.

We created with following members:

• noradaiko
• sow
• ryan
• tel

Thank you very much for enjoying our installation.
And also I’d like to thank members for joining this project! 😉

“Congratulation, this MacBook Pro has been made to meet you.”

It’s a great stop motion with wolf and pig!!

I thought everyone can make such a great video easily using only camera.
So I’ve become to wanna do that!!
Please somebody help me..lol

I finally determined to purchase the MacBook Pro!
‘Cuz my main PC has been broken 2 months ago because of its end of life. lol
It was for about 6 years since I’ve made this PC..yes, this is a handmade PC.
Maybe its motherboard has died.

Recently I’m using MacBook Air that is lent me by our Lab.
So I’m now Maccer (Everyone calls those who loves using Macintosh ‘Maccer.’)
And my private information is being in this PC.
I’m afraid to leak these information.

I customized a keyboard of MacBook Pro to US keyboard.
It will be delivered in 10 days.
I’m very looking forward to it!!!

I will use it for drawing images and recording musics.
hehehe.
Of course I also use it for making applications..such as web app, native app and so on.
Yeah!

Doing things which are different from others is very difficult.
First off, we can’t find something new frequently.
And eventually we’ll lose sight of our objective and get confused.

Then we have to recall what we actually wanted to do.
Do we really wanna do something new, or something different from others?
What is meaning to do that?

In any case that’s the best way to take care of that we truly wanna do.
Though it’s also difficult to keep our mind like that.
Think be simple.
