Static Vs Dynamic
Categories: Art , Electronics

One of the first things they taught us in the media program in Finland was to question the word "interactive". What is interactive? From an interface perspective, are websites interactive? Are they really? Is TV interactive? What is so different about clicking through pages on websites and changing a channel on a TV? TV is static content, changing the channel is not interaction, not a dynamic form of it anyways.

Where am I going with this? Why think of all this now?

I've been thinking a lot about 'interactive art installation' lately. I've had a few lightning strikes in me ol' noggin that make me hope I might just be able to make my next piece a little more dynamic. Something that reacts. No button pushing.
Genpets was just a sculpture, a moving sculpture, but it had no soul, no AI…

Ahh nevermind. These are just the random musings of a crazy artist. Though I am getting rather excited about my next series...
