Fire with Fire is the latest installation by Isabelle Hayeur, a Montreal-based artist working in the fields related to landscape design and architecture. The installation is located at the Downtown Eastside, the oldest neighbourhood in Vancouver in attempt to recall troubled period of Vancouver’s history reminding also of lives lost by the years of homeless, drug use, street prostitution and violence in this area.

This historic area is infamous for being plagued by social problems due to poverty. Before falling prey to serious urban decay, it has known brighter days, and was even the city’s business hub until the 1980s. Derelict for over twenty years, in more recent ones, it has started to be sought after again. The Downtown Eastside is undergoing a major mutation —witness the newly renovated buildings and the constructions sites that now dot the area. read more..

Fire with Fire has been commissioned by The Vancouver 2010 Cultural Olympiad.
Curator : Marlene Madison.

Quote:
There are four essential parts in making abstract information experiencable: information itself, relevant senses, fitting emotion and a direct reference of the presentation to the information. With our method you can not only design fitting media, but also check existing media for its potential. To demonstrate the systematics, we built three interactive installations. By using them you become an interactive diagram in a virtual mirror, cause virtual water-pollution in a water-basin or compare the time you have to work in different countries to buy a big mac or some bread. All of these installations show a different approach of immersive data transfer.

El 3d es lo más. El 3D es el último grito. El 3d es la moda.

Esto es evidente. Y tú, usuario avezado de la red de redes, puedes… es más, debes imbuirte de lleno en este mundo tridimensional tan apasionante (en realidad no es nada tan apasionante, no sé si alguno se ha dado cuenta de que la vida ya es en tres dimensiones de por sí…).

Pero bueno, al lío que me despisto. Hoy te sugiero Avatara, una web con la que podrás crear tu propio avatar animado y subirlo a todos tus perfiles de las redes sociales en las que estás atrapado.

El programa permite seleccionar el género, el color del cabello, de la piel y tipo de textura. Otra opción es subir una imagen para que Avatara pueda adaptarlo y crear un avatar en forma automática.

En todos los casos, cuando tengamos el personaje terminado podremos seleccionarle una animación para determinar el tipo de movimiento que realiza, como bailar, correr, saltar, gritar, hacer señas, etc… Ale, a disfrutar!

Curiosamente, ya había un grupo interesante en Facebook parecido… “En Facebook hay un tipo que se llama igual que yo y no soy yo“.
