"Seducing People by Talking With Your Hands:" ITP Spring Show 2009
The ITP Spring Show, 2009 last Sunday was an interaction riot, jam packed with brilliance and off beat explorations of locative media (for more on the topic of locative media and my upcoming trip to Where Week 2009 - Where 2.0, and WhereCamp, see my post, "Creating the Information Landscapes of the Future: Locative Media, Loose Interaction Topologies, and The Shape of Alpha.") Also see some of my ITP Spring Show favorites in these pictures up on my FLickr stream.
Most projects boldy went where none have gone before and some did so with a lot of panache. Alexander Reeder's S Ring (picture below) as NYC Resistor Bre Pettis put it, is "an elegant and beautiful design."
Alexander Reeder, writes about S Ring :
"S Ring facilitates communication in new and unspoken ways by releasing a pleasing scent accented with pheremones."
Or as Alexander explained when I talked to him, S Ring is:
"Seducing people by talking with your hands."
Uber Geeks and luminaries were everywhere and the show got massive
press coverage - see here.
Elizabeth Fuller's face as Clay Shirky checks out her "exploration of the interplay of order and chaos," Moire Dress, see the picture below, reminds me how I felt when Robert Morris, my tutor during my MFA - back in the day, came to my studio to give a me crit!
