TURBOMIXER is a web-based simple DJ mixer replica. The approach for this prototype is to find and rebuild a most basic, established, best practice sound mixing tool first - as a proper starting point.
The following prototypes are playful design research tools, that pick specific aspects of that complex behaviour for ideation, understanding and creation - to get a feeling for the interconnected system in an interactive, nonverbal manner.
The Poem of Materiality is an ideation prototype that uses Large Language Models in combination with custom system prompts and several text based control elements - to create poetic prototypes based on precise Material specifications and usage parameters. The first prototype is purely text based, but the output is engineered to be used a image prompts to generate images of that prototypes with any image generator.
TURBOVIDEO is a plain simple video recording software for mobile camera. It comes with a bare minimum of features, like front- or back camera selection, record pausing and video download. It works for both portrait or landscape and should be recognized as a practice tool / sketch tool for video production.
With JS/WEBGL we can create interesting webcam effects for realtime - like filters. We can also play with the playback time/timecode to access new perspectives to our recorded material. The following experiments show different approaches to play with that method.
In jedem Material zeigt sich unsere Welt. Unsere Sinne erkennen seine Oberfläche, sein Gewicht, seine Temperatur – sie geben uns einen Eindruck von Beschaffenheit und Zustand. Doch Material ist mehr als nur Stoff: Es trägt eine Geschichte in sich, von seiner Entstehung, seiner Nutzung und seinem Zerfall.
Ein analoges Legespiel für generationsübergreifendes Geschichtenerzählen mit polysemen Bildkarten. Spieler:innen entwickeln gemeinsam eine Narration durch Anlegen von Karten in einem Raster, wobei narrative Flexibilität und innere Konsistenz im Vordergrund stehen. Das Open-Source-Spiel fördert Kreativität und soziale Interaktion ohne Wettbewerbscharakter.
This collection offers a hands-on, low-level tutorial for creating custom web-based brushes. It demonstrates how to build an interactive drawing tool where users can sample textures directly from an image to create dynamic, soft-edged round or square brushes. This is a practical guide for designers and developers looking to understand and implement custom drawing functionality in JavaScript.
Using text prompts to generate specific shapes and designs is and still will be quiet a challenge. With the help of image based guide maps, this challenge becomes quiet enjoyable!
An experimental tool that generates stylized text by replacing standard letters with alternative Unicode characters from scripts like Cherokee, Runic, and Georgian. It features a unique "vary" button that creates new randomized font mixes on the fly, offering a creative and playful way to design custom fancy text.
With the LTX Video 13b distilled model, we have a resh opportunity to generate short animations in quiet quick and responsive way. The 13b Model has quiet comparable prompt understanding and with current start- and endframe input we have proper control over the diffusion process.
Der FITTERBIT ist eine funktionslose Smartwatch aus Holz mit austauschbarem Papier, die bewusst auf Technologie verzichtet, um kritische Fragen zu digitaler Selbstoptimierung zu provozieren. Durch seine analoge Einfachheit regt er Gespräche an und wird zum sozialen Medium, das Aufmerksamkeit auf menschliche statt technische Interaktion lenkt. Sein fehlender Stift symbolisiert Offenheit – er nutzt vorhandene Alltagspraktiken und fördert bewusste, improvisierte Momente der Kommunikation.
