Artistic meanderings through Coolitude

Myotome meanderings

The formation of muscles within the vertebrate embryo is a tightly orchestrated and complex undertaking. Beyond the initial specification of cells to become muscle are several complex cellular movements and migrations, which lead to the positioning of muscle precursors at specific locations within the embryo. The consequent differentiation, elongation and striation of these cells results in the...

Mobile Haptic Technology Development through Artistic Exploration

This paper investigates how artistic explorations can be useful for the development of mobile haptic technology. It presents an alternative framework of design for wearable haptics that contributes to the building of haptic communities outside specialized research contexts. The paper also presents our various wearable haptic systems for mobile computing capable of producing high-order tactile p...

Generation of Engineering Research Directions Through Artistic Process

This paper describes the creation of SwarmVision, a system of autonomous robotic cameras that functions both as the basis for an art installation and as an instrument for generating novel engineering research. Through a series of interviews with engineers who examined the project, we illustrate how experimentation with the instrument could lead to potential new research directions in computer v...
