Final Project Proposal

For my final project, I plan to continue with my lab of chaos idea from the location-based AR project. Based on the work I have done so far and walking around the space, there are some changes that I would like to make to it. The major change will be swapping from using the cintiqs…

The area of my artistic practice that I want to focus on improving this semester is creating a bridge between the physical and digital spaces. This involves working the skills needed to create an experience that utilizes AR and physical objects, similar to the AR cards that came with the 3DS. Below I have identified…
