Interactive Bar Tables

I been searching for interactive arts for a while, even though nothing much worthy came up. I thought, I'd share this piece anyway. Here is a project with the purpose of making bar-tables interactive, done by Ars Electronica Futurelab. While the idea doesn't sound much interesting to me, the installation looks fun and appropriate for a bar. I suppose, nobody would mind seeing and experiencing more of these little interactive art projects.

Julius Popp

During my search, I stumbled upon Julius Popp's highly interactive work. Julius Popp is a German artist who collaborate arts with science. Thus, creating highly interactive and creative pieces. The remarkable aspect of his work definetly lies in the concept of using technology in such a method with art that it becomes fully interactive with the audience. Here is several examples from his work, including the bit.fall and the bit.code

Henri Cartier-Bresson

Henri Cartier-Bresson, was a well known French photographer who had great contributions in the area of cultivating "street photography". He was particulary fascinated by a photojournalist called Munkacsi, which later made him quit painting and influenced him to become a photographer. Since he was already interested in surrealism, during his painting career, he started to capture moments which seemed not possible or simply great. Much of his work is based upon "decisive moments", where a character or an element is captured while making a sudden movement or a gesture. Bresson, definetly has an impressive work and influence on the field of photography, and also very much inspiring. Thus, that is something worth sharing.

  

Scott Eagle

Scott Eagle, is a fairly talented, known  illustrator and artist. Most of his work is based on book cover arts and such, but he's illustrations are standing and odd, yet very inspiring. I wanted to share his work, that it may instill a bit of an inspirational oddness to us all, for our future projects. Who knows, might change your point of view on illustrations? I find his work quite powerful, to be honest.
