A physical interface for Nintendo’s Punch-Out!!! that lets the player play, punch, and jump around acting as the main character in the game. The player must physically move their feet to move the character, and must also punch the interface in order to hit their opponents. When the player is punched, a camera flash will activate and distract the player.

Fluid Data is a dynamic urban interface combining social data with architecture. The amount of location-specific content being put on the internet is almost impossible to keep track of, and this project intends to make visible the pages and pages of data that most tend to miss. Real-time Twitter posts (both about and by residents of the city) and news stories about the city it’s installed in will gently flow throughout the architecture of the building. This seemingly endless flow of data will follow pipes, door frames, and other architectural elements as it moves around the room, showing viewers just how much data about the city is being created in real-time. Intending to highlight elements of the architecture, the data will follow paths both in and out of a room, appearing in the space via the internet, flowing along the architecture, then disappearing again, back into the social data sphere.

The Meatbook, an interactive art installation, explores the use of a novel tangible interace to provoke a visceral response in the viewer. The Meatbook presentes the symbiosis of the mechanical and the organic as it simultaneously juxtaposes the conflicting materiality of these media. Sensors, motors and other mechanics are used to animate the meat, generating movements specifically designed to produce visceral, even cathartic responses from the user. By simultaneously generating revulsion and fascionation, the user undergoes an embodied experience in which the alien and the familiar come together in the form of a book.
Exhibited at Tangible and Embedded Interaction 07 in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.
