Harold and the Purple Crayon

Senior art student (now alumna) Eva Coulon incorporated motion tracking, immersive projection, and natural-language text generation to create an interactive experience inspired by the classic children’s book. The position of a tracked marker painted purple trails and warped the floor-projected text of the story using Touch Designer. The lab hosted the final project presentations of Justin Lincoln’s New Media Art class. Eva learned how to use motion tracking data in the Intelligent User Interfaces CS special topics class.
