My final project is titled “Us Humans are More Alike than we are Different.” The theme of this project is connection, and I wanted to show what makes us humans all alike, and what connects all of us. I tried to make my project kind of like a game show, where the two players are…

Conor Dolan – Final Project Concept Sketch
For my final project, I plan to investigate the concept that as humans, we are more alike than we are different.

Conor Dolan – Computer Vision/Audio Input Sketch
For my project, I decided to recreate the iconic flappy bird game using audio as an input. I know it’s not the most aesthetically pleasing thing to look at, but otherwise I’m happy with how it came out. The more audio input you give, the higher that flappy bird goes.

For my Makey Makey Audio Sketch, I used some audio clips of a car horn. I used four inputs, and controlled them using a conductive drawing.
Data Art – Student Loans vs Inflation
For my data art project, I chose to compare the inflation rate and the average amount of student loans a person has upon graduation. The red circles represent inflation and the green circles represent student loans. (Between the years of 2003 and 2017, where each new set of circles represents another two years) The point…
Data Sketch – Student Loans vs Inflation
For my data sketch, I chose to focus on the amount of student loans that the average person has, an issue that most to all of us in this class can relate to. For almost the past twenty years, the average student loans that a person has have exceeded the rate of inflation, and as…
