Max/MSP

  • broken phone

    a patch that implements the old game of broken phone. a massage can be sent to the next computer that joins the network. each player hears the message of the previous player and send his recorded message to the next player. or he can end the cycle and reverse the process towards the first player. (Project for SSI course, Leiden University).

VideoArt

  • cirkus

    a short video made using lumnia technic. the video visualizes the sound movie "Wochenende" (The Weekend) of W.Ruttman Project for DM course, KABK Royal Academy of Art in Den Haag. take a look

  • diagonal montage

    diagonal montage technics implement the priority of sound composition while film editing, instead of the image's. the assignment was to make a short film in which the distance of image and sound would be maximized, so no correlation between them can be found. Project for DM course, KABK Royal Academy of Art in Den Haag. take a look

Web

  • delivericious.gr

    This site is a project that me and some friends started. The goal is to enable users to easily and intuitively locate food stores that deliver at one's home area. Additionally this site offers an easy way to calculate one's order.

  • fabricaudio.com

    This is a fully ajaxed website with the photo gallery of the construciotn of a recording and post production studio in Athens. They asked for a website for to host their construciton photos until a the studio is build and the officioal website is launched.

  • tictag.cc

    This is the website for my graduation project in the MSc Media Technology of Leiden University. The project is tag based visual search engine that enables the user to browse the web through related concepts retrieved from del.icio.us, Yahoo and Google in an innovative and fun way.

  • wreckdiving.gr

    This is a simple and clear design I made for werckdiving.gr. WreckDiving is a group of people that dives in old wrecks. They asked me to redesign from scratch their website and I tried to make it as uncluttered and to the point as possible. I used HTML CSS Javascript and PHP.

  • boose.gr

    This is a website that I wanted long time now. I wanted a video blog with animations and media art news for the greek community. I wanted to focus more on the design and the look and feel of the website. For the rest I used the wordpress cms. I did the html, css and javascript in cooperation with xris.

Installations

  • cityTour of choices

    a project for school. we were given a theme for which we had to form a statement. we then had to build an installation which would support our statement.
    the concept:
    our statement was "free will is an experience". we made a tour where people could make choices as to which path they would take. at the end of the tour the player was provided with a score of predictable of their chosen path. this was possible because the options of the path were such that people would be biased towards only one of them. theories of marketing had to be researched and implemented, as well as a survey had to be curried off on the internet, so as to evaluate our hypothesis.
    the setup:
    a bicycle would control a flash application playing the movie of the tour. a dynamo on the wheel would measure the speed of the user's pedaling and two switches attached to the steer corresponded to left and right. all inputs from the bicycle's sensors were connected to a modified keyboard's electronic-board giving key-inputs to the flash app. the project was carried out by Ella Keijzer, Job de Reus and me.
    a modification of the final product attracted the attention of the senior house's physiotherapist department in Leiden.
