It sounds like an interesting model and one that has similarities<br>with another group that I am newly affiliated with FEM TECHNET.<br><a href="http://femtechnet.org/about-the-network/">http://femtechnet.org/about-the-network/</a><br>Fem Technet however convenes for the most part in virtual space. They too<br>are focused on issues involving gender equity especially in education.<br>Fem Technet and one of its founders Anne Balsamo have a huge initiative in<br>incorporating seminars on rewriting women lives on Wiki. She will be my<br>guest this month soon.<br></blockquote><div><br></div>Great - will keep an eye out for that thread :-)<br><blockquote type="cite"><br>I will spend a bit of time with your blog btw.<br><a href="http://traceybenson.com/2014/11/23/summary-of-adacamp-bangalore-day-one/">http://traceybenson.com/2014/11/23/summary-of-adacamp-bangalore-day-one/</a><br><br>My interests in learning AR stem from a drawing project I am beginning.<br>The piece has to do with the general idea of global warming and the<br>weather but is inspired by a pretty serious weather event that Tim and<br>were in the middle of last July. The work will be large-scale drawings<br>with networked areas that viewers will have to seek out on their devices.<br>Those areas or hotspots will provide fun facts to know and tell about<br>weather, geographic location, global warming, etc. So the AR will animate<br>the still drawings. The user will have to provide the movement with her<br>hand and eyes as she roams the surface of the drawing.<br></blockquote><div><br></div>Sounds like a lovely project - please keep me informed of progress!<br><blockquote type="cite"><br>Jason is the one who recommended Layar to me but I will check out the<br>others that you mention. I understand your APP allows you to print<br>artifacts, postcards, etc.<br></blockquote><div><br></div>Layar is a good tool too. When you use Aurasma you create a 'trigger' image which is what activates the AR component - this image is then what I use in other forms - printed materials, in blog posts etc - hope that is a bit clearer.<br><blockquote type="cite"><br>Thanks Tracey for sharing with us your work. If you have any time at all<br>to stay on with us even intermittently I would love it.<br></blockquote><div><br></div>Will do Renate :-)</div><div>Best</div><div>Tracey</div><div><br><blockquote type="cite">Renate<br><br><br><br>Renate Ferro<br>Visiting Assistant Professor of Art,Cornell University<br>Department of Art, Tjaden Hall Office: 306<br>Ithaca, NY 14853<br>Email: <<a href="mailto:rferro@cornell.edu">rferro@cornell.edu</a> <<a href="mailto:rtf9@cornell.edu">mailto:rtf9@cornell.edu</a>>><br>URL: <a href="http://www.renateferro.net">http://www.renateferro.net</a> <<a href="http://www.renateferro.net/">http://www.renateferro.net/</a>><br> <a href="http://www.privatesecretspubliclies.net">http://www.privatesecretspubliclies.net</a><br><<a href="http://www.privatesecretspubliclies.net/">http://www.privatesecretspubliclies.net/</a>><br>Lab: <a href="http://www.tinkerfactory.net">http://www.tinkerfactory.net</a> <<a href="http://www.tinkerfactory.net/">http://www.tinkerfactory.net/</a>><br><br>Managing Co-moderator of -empyre- soft skinned space<br><a href="http://empyre.library.cornell.edu/">http://empyre.library.cornell.edu/</a><br><br><br>_______________________________________________<br>empyre forum<br>empyre@lists.artdesign.unsw.edu.au<br>http://empyre.library.cornell.edu<br></blockquote></div><br></body></html>
