Hopelash Installation (Pure Data)

This one of my Pure Data Patches. I use this Patch together with an Arduino board and a Theremin Sensor to control sound and visuals of my interactive installation called “Hopelash”.

Amplification of the Auditory Perception 2.0 (ActionScript/Flash)

Short project description, abstract/synopsis:
This software/media project is especially for children. The aim of this work is to find ways to experience a sonic environment within a (educational) software for children dealing with the issue of sensible hearing / listening. The main focus is an awareness raising for their own aural environment. In a society were the ability of listening is assumed and mostly associated with music this interactive software work is conceived as a query, seeking to inspire a dialogue about sound and listening in a non-musical way. Children can look into this subject in a playful way. The software should urge children to listen to the sounds of an acoustic environment more watchful and critical.
