Ideas/Proposal development

- A mash-up of artistic drawings/sketches/paintings/2d objects/installations using Augmented Reality as a blending tool and a tool to enhance and add a new layer of visual meaning to the installation

- Markers are designed & composed as its own artistic object

The design of markers
- work with folding, layering, staking, angling of markers. Compose markers artistically in both 2d and 3d.
- Do a mesh up of hand drawn sketches with photographs(may be translated to a 3d model using photosynth & mesh lab) and computer generated graphics.


Hand drawn sketches as markers

Experimenting with using hand drawn sketches as a marker.

Default HITLab model loaded onto marker. Despite the complexity of the drawing, BuildAR seem to recognise the marker relatively well.
Makers may be presented as a framed piece of artwork and employing augmented reality, the drawing may turn into a 3d model or the drawing may be animated.
The major challenge will be to blend and integrate markers into a single art piece or installation in a subtle manner and allow viewers to discover augmented elements as they scan pass the drawing.

Installation by Zaha Hadid



















Taking inspiration from the work of Libeskind and Hadid, I try to create drawings incorporating the curves/fluidity of hadid and sharpness + shards/shrapnels of Libeskind.
