Personal Research Abstract

This research studies how interactive design is becoming a universal language.
The focus of the research is around the recent rise in digital interactive exhibits and installations in museums and galleries. The research investigates how these works have the potential to become a universal language that goes beyond written and spoken language.

Various interaction design theories and reviews of various interactive artworks from museums and festivals such as Ars Electronica will be studied in this document. Further study will demonstrate how people have become accustomed to interactive devices and procedures in their everyday life so much so that different spoken language may no longer a barrier.

Day 2: Log and Capture

On my second day of editing at the new at exchange, i entered all the times which i had logged before in the excel file. i was then going to export these as an xhml file to import into final cut pro, however i then just manually entered the numbers for each log. this took up alot of space so it was time consuming to move files.

Day 1: Logging

For my first day of editing at the new art exchange i viewed all the tapes from the gallery open day in september. there were 5 tapes, at one hour each, so it was my job to log all the important clips from these films to use in three, three minute films.
Afterwards i don't think i was as selective of the footage as i should have been, however i hadn't seen the footage so as the tapes went on i realized there was a lot of repetition within the film. this could always be used as alternative camera angles.

example of film log:
