CeraLeaves
Ceramic Art + P-Comp
Final project for Project development studio Fall 2007



I made it for the first prototype of my thesis project last semester. This is an interactive ceramic installation. 

I arranged the ceramic leaves like falling leaves on the wall. There is a IR distance sensor, so it detects the distance between viewers and the piece.  


There are three stages.


The first stage is no one in front of it or someone far from it. It is on the wall like a painting. In general, people don't care much of paintings around them. When people don't care of it for a few minutes, it will move very slowly in order, from top to bottom like falling leaves. 


The second stage, when people find that it's moving, they will get interest of it and come to the piece. Then, the leaves will swing faster. The viewers will realize it's interactive. 


The third stage, people will come closer to the piece, then the leaves will shake fast.

Wooden Mirror - Danny Rozin


2004 winter, it was the last vacation of my university life.

I was studying Ceramic Arts but I didn't like it that much. I was interested in visual communications design for a very long time. However, after studying design for a couple of years I found limitations in plane works of visual communications design. I found out that what I wanted to do was to do arts where I could freely express what I wanted to express, and design was insufficient for that. But I couldn't find what I exactly want to do.


In February, 2005, I could decide my path by chance from reading my favorite Korean design magazine. There was an article about 'W Hotel' in Seoul, and in it, I could see a glimmer of hope to decide my path - the 'Wooden Mirror'. Numerous wooden pieces moved like dominos, following the movements of human beings, and finally making a human figure. I headed to W Hotel right away, and there I saw the Wooden Mirror. 

At the first glance, my joy was beyond expression, and there I could decide my path to Interactive Arts  without hesitation. 


I want to do art works where eccentric and unique ideas are combined with formative arts and new technologies. Furthermore, my belated finding of the attractive material, clay, gave me the desire to show a completely new possibility in the area of Interaction Arts and Ceramic Arts, with the harmony of Clay sculptures and technologies.  


This is the story of how I knew ITP and why I am in ITP and what I want to do at ITP and in the future.
