Assignment for PART II Review, Tuesday 2/20
(image of Director Kathryn Bigelow of The Hurt Locker)
Please make a Premiere Movie. This is a first pass – we have weeks to improve it. Have fun with it. Focus on content and timing (not transitions, etc).
Please also print 11×17 vertical (content 11×11) and upload revised WordPress post using category 2.8 PART II REVIEW.
These projects from Barcelona 2022 should help.
.
1.0 Project Ideation
See Part I Review requirements below- revise all work. This is all very important – revised clarity of idea and “finer-grained” understanding.
1.1 Title page
- title, graphic reference of your problem with your own color affect, and your names.
- Add Hypothesis and 3 research questions to first slide.
1.2 Problem Definition
- 2 paragraphs (see past assignment)
- important diagrams and infographics of your problem.
- research questions / assumptions that your aim to prove with a more GRANULAR understanding
1.3 Theoretical framework Diagram
Revise : grey-out previous indicators not currently used
- Big Idea / Problem, Subcategories of idea, qualities and indicators
- make Icons for each quality/indicator (solid squares with void for icons)
- consider symbols for Fixed Data (Elk), walking data (Elephant) and Phenomena (phone sensors, arduino sensor data, other) Site visit
1.4 Research: Lit review
- Quote from three of the readings/videos with citation and thumbnail image
- Citation from periodicals (min. 1 local and 2 national)
- Scientific Journal citation (1-2) explaining the science
1.5 Research: Diagrams of the program, Ven diagrams, User Types
- Diagram any ideas for user types such as by age, time of week, live/work/play, etc.
- Info graphics with large text heirarchy of the problem in the world and in Eugene.
1.6 Background Map: City
- Aerial satellite image, outline of City limit, highlight aspect of city most relevant to your project (possibly desaturate other areas), possibly overlay vector information, location site
- Identify baseline areas of ideal “good” and “bad” locations in Eugene related to your idea (highlight them on City plan) – some slide why.
(examples for Tigard air pollution: sources such as roads and industrial sources, and sensitivities such as schools, parks with playgrounds and catchment homes of student residences)
1.7 Background Map: District/Neighborhood
- vector drawings using OSM lines, consider possible sources and sensitivities (good/bad…example in Tigard is bad roads and industrial sources in magenta and good locations of children in plus symbols.
(examples for Tigard air pollution: sources such as roads and industrial sources, and sensitivities such as schools, parks with playgrounds and catchment homes of student residences)
1.8 Elephant TOOL, individual maps 1: (example from Nicholas de Monchaux at Berkeley)
- Use the tool to map INDIVIDUAL quality/indicator. Key / legend in a corner. highlight color of quality not background. data dictionary in legend. Use circles but also try to make your own parametric symbols using the Icon tool, Text Tag, Scale, etc.
1.9 Elephant individual maps 2
1.10 Elephant individual maps 3
1.11 Elephant individual maps 4
1.12 Elephant individual maps 5
1.13 Elephant individual maps 6
1.14 Analysis Findings
- List three analysis or findings from your data and possible ideas for next steps as design goals
- List three possible sensors you could use and why you would use them
- any diagrams or thumbnail images next to the above text.
II. Skills (Part II)
2.1 Evidence to of Arduino work (this will vary): pics of you holding sensor, GIF or video testing it.
2.2+ Control tests; Pilot test; on-site tests 3×3 (not required). Limits and Challenges
2.4 GIS VIZ Tool (Elephant) Bird’s Eye Z-line visualization of 2-4 parameters for each subtopic
Video link (from Covid) that discusses Rhino to Illustrator workflow. Start around 22:00 minute mark! MAKE2D and EXPORT SELECTED each layer of info: buildings, streets, etc and your Z lines with their baked geometry, color and thickness (PW printwidth). Then overlay them all in Illustrator. Taper the Z-lines (watch my trick on scale 200% checking off “scale line weight” and then scale 50% unchecking “scale line weight”), make a copy and then make the stroke fat like 6 or 8pt, drop opacity and do a Gausian Blur!
3.0 Design Criteria: Situated Technology
In one or two pages list and answer the following questions and copy with citation at least one precedent. You may also have small swatches pics of zoomed qualities next to each question / answer.
(note: the final prompt could be something like this from Barcelona 2022, examples here if we have time.)
- Title of Individual Sensor project (2 words)
- What is the sensor technology, how does it relate to the qualities studied within the theoretical framework and phenomena, and who does it serve? (Please answer in one sentence/phrase)
- How is the sensor data used by people? (Please answer in one sentence/phrase)
Sensor/s used:
- Name of actual sensory
Interaction location:
- Situated technology on site or Mobile app (pick one or both) Farmers Market Plaza or at every address or street?
Actuation:
- Actuates “something” (ex. water) / Visible or invisible
Information Type:
- Color, Numerical data, or etc?
Interaction Type Variable (Parameter):
- On/off, Intensity, Color, Numerical change, Word change?
(students William Franklin | Betty Lou Poston | Rachel Rimmer)
(student Harrison Moser, Hannah Six, Kevin Tan)
Forthcoming in PART III next 4 weeks:
- Mass data collection. Special attention to fine-grained scales of time and space. 3×3 Superilla data collection. Baseline locations. Possibly more than one Arduino sensor kit. GRAPHS
- analysis and visualization (critical assessment), GOOGLE EARTH STUDIO
- findings and outcomes from the analysis, AFTER EFFECTS and PREMIERE
