“Body Paint” by Mehmet Akten is an interactive installation and performance allowing users to paint on a virtual canvas with their body, interpreting gestures and dance into evolving compositions. The installation is designed to work with any number of people and is scalable to cover small or large areas. The interaction is very simple - movement creates paint. Hidden in the simplicity, are many layers of subtle details. Different aspects of the motion - size, speed, acceleration, curvature, distance all have an effect on the outcome - strokes, splashes, drips, spirals - and is left up to the users to play and discover.
Doritos sweet chilly (Cubocc) 2009 desktop, shape recognition, marker, animation, single-user, flat small field of view, reacts to marker position, linear narrative, any computer with webcam, ARtvertising, packaging
The initiative launched in Brazil to promote Doritos Sweet Chili is a good example of a augmented reality moving in the right direction. The idea is simple: on each package of the snack consumer find and augmented reality symbol, a code that can be activated at www.doritos.com.br, releasing a Doritos Lover, a 3D toy-art-inspired-monster. The Lovers should then be freed and added to their owners profiles at Orkut, the most popular social network in Brasil, as a special app. It is also possible to take pictures, create birth certificates or leave the monsters out for adoption, in case the owner is not very fond of his new "baby". Already 23.000 lovers have been released among the 18.000.000.000.000 possible combinations of Doritos Lovers.
