NUVE is an artistic project that aims to explore the artistic possibilities offered by the digital dance performances in the interaction between the individual and his virtual double. In NUVE we conceptualized, developed and implemented a digital artifact, resulting in a fluid digital performance based on the theme of the analog body versus the digital virtual body.
O relatório está dividido em duas partes. Na primeira parte, é abordado o problema da visualização exactamente no que diz respeito à subtil correlação existente entre as técnicas (e respectivas metáforas), o utilizador e os dados. Na segunda parte, são analisadas algumas aplicações, projectos, ferramentas e sistemas de Visualização de Informação. Para categorizalos, serão considerados sete tipos de dados básico...
Neste artigo abordamos a temática do terrorismo através da perspectiva da visualização da informação, substanciado num projecto de arte digital, o Global Terrorism Database Visualization (GTDV), que recorre a técnicas e processos de visualização de informação, codifica e representa graficamente, e de forma estética, a base de dados Global Terrorism Database da Universidade de Maryland, Estados Unidos, que reúne...
You Move You Interact (YMYI) is an interactive installation, in which a user engages in a body language dialogue with an artificial system resulting in a performing interaction loop consisting of gestures and movements synchronised with virtual animations and sounds. The project aims at exploring an interactive stage, where the user is invited to develop his/her own creative inspiration based on the exploration...
YMYI (You Move You Interact) is an interactive digital installation designed to encourage a body performing dialogue with an artificial system, uncovering an ongoing interchange between the body kinetic universe and the audivisual imagery embodied in the interface. YMYI sets a stage where body gestures and movements guide a audio visual installation invoking an imaginary of body expressiveness.
The human body is composed of several systems and organs that have a specific and well located position within it. Each organ is usually related to one or more physiological data. There is a subtle spatial interdependency on human’s body structure and behaviour. Because of this, doctors usually execute a spatial analysis when diagnosing a disease in a patient. The doctor has to combine patient’s medical data pe...
We propose to observe users’ spontaneous facial expressions as a method to identify adverse-event occurrences at the user interface level. We discuss an experiment designed to investigate the association between incidents during a word processing task and users’ facial expressions monitored using electromyogram sensor devices. The results suggest that an increase of task difficulty is related to an increase in...
This work aims the creation of virtual worlds by working teams with resource to advanced interaction techniques, such as speech commands and gestures, as well as the resource to portable devices. The physical characteristics of virtual reality environments lead us to a different kind of user interfaces. However, we found some usefulness on the classic WIMP paradigm, which we also apply by using a PDA, in order ...
Mobile technologies are going through a massification process, assuming themselves as tools to be used in any situation or place. The fast evolution of these type of technologies, will allow for the attribution of a higher level of mobility of remote services and contents, making use of mobile devices such as PDA’s or cellular phones. This article will present a practical case of a value added mobile applicatio...
The Trans Portugal Galicia Network Project, TORGA.net, was a proposal to the Program Interregional IIIA, Galicia – North of Portugal sub-program with the following partners: University of Minho, University of Vigo, Centro de Supercomputación de Galicia and the Centro de Computação Gráfica in Guimarães. It has as its main objective the creation of infrastructures and the organization and development of the spac...
