Motion Map

2009

A motion responsive installation that draws geographic textures in response to motion, designed with Processing. Motion Map is a spatial installation of Map Reveal, one of the Imagined Location mapping tools.

Motion Map was recently installed at the 2011 Monitor Digital Arts Festival in Guadalajara, Mexico.


Map Reveal (Cars)


In the car version of Map Reveal, people interact with the imagery by driving two small remote-controlled cars.
Cars navigating geography is not completely unfamiliar, but in this interaction, the cars act as paint brushes
in an collaged out of scale environment.





Map Reveal (Carpet)


In the carpet version of Map Reveal, the textures are projected onto a carpet. The softness and frame of the carpet encourages people to touch and sit in the map altering the imagery in unexpected ways.
