"Our project started as a photo booth for skateboarders inspired by grunge aesthetics from the 90s, but has evolved to be more abstract and all encompassing. It’s now an interactive Photo Booth where users see the live camera feed respond to range sensors triggering power outlets connected to various light fixtures. The development process has been pretty smooth."

"Our project is an interactive Photo Booth inspired by 90s grunge and "home made" aesthetics. We coded a monitor sensor to change the lighting display in the back drop of the photo booth and coded a stylized camera with an external live-feed projection on a nearby wall. Our project is installation based, so we will get feedback and "present" it at a specific time and date, 3pm on December 3rd. Since development, our project has grown and changed slightly. When we first started the project, the theme was meant to be directed at skateboarders and the photo booth would invite them to perform a trick on their skateboard to initialize the photo or the interactivity. Since the start, we have opened up our project to have a more intuitive way of triggering the camera with an external button because we wanted to make the project more accessible to everyone who may visit.

"Our project is an interactive photo booth setup, utilizing Arduino distance sensors to detect where people are standing and turn on or off various lights in reaction to that. There will be a projected view of what the image looks like with filter included, and the person interacting with it will have a remote to take the image as well as cycle through different color filters.

In the beginning of the semester, Seneca and Bennett pitched an interactive projected skating setup, which got pivoted to a skateboarding photo booth when this project was assigned. After we started working together, we decided to change our focus to the photography side of things so the event could be more open to the public."

"The skate theme was originally from my pitch early on in the class about an interactive skateboarding art exhibit that was scrapped in place of the aeroscape project. I was still interested in the theme after and it evolved into what it is now."

- Bennett Synder

"I joined this project in a collaboration with Bennett. We had come up with a skateboarding themed idea at the beginning of the class that got put on pause for the aerospace installation so when we came back around for smaller projects, we knew we wanted to revive this sort of idea."
