Neighbourhood Satellites
Environment Sensing Adventures in the City.

To make the detection of local environmental conditions an engaging activity, this project integrates mobile game play with grassroots air sensing.

My Masters thesis project at Interaction Design Institute Ivrea, completed in June 2005.


Presented at Exit, Torino; PerGames2005, Munich; Stadio San Siro, Milan

 

The Global Warming Tracking Network
For Telecom Italia's Future Centre

This is a concept where people offer the idle time of their cell phones to compute changes in global climate. Together with an additional information service for posting wishes, they can stay in touch with events related to global warming.

 

Great Park Project

El Toro, a former military base in Orange County will become the biggest public park of the United States.
Proposals, stories, surveys, research, and simulations on the future of this land and its possible transformations.

With Amy Franceschini, Futurefarmers


California Biennal 2004
Orange County Museum, USA.

 

The Amazing All-Band Radio

A set of three radios allow for hunting the waves of the whole radio spectrum from the comfort of one's home.

With Oren Horev

At Strangely Familiar: Unusual Objects in Everyday Life. Galerie AB+, Torino

 

Airplant
Cleaning the air as you walk

Cities are growing into mega cities and air pollution is increasing.
We created a scenario for the future where people with personal, body powered devices can clean the air in their micro environments, causing positive accumulated effects by mass usage. A field experiment among the citizens of Milan explores their motivations as potential air cleaners.

With Maya Lotan

 

The Zone
Video surveillance as a gaming platform.

For Hitachi Design Center Europe

Networked surveillance cameras are constantly providing faultless insights into public and private spaces. The Zone is a proposed videogame platform that plays on this reality, introducing fiction through live video.

With Bernd Hitzeroth

Presented at the 'Tendenze idee progetti' exhibition at Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo, Torino, 1st to 4th of July 2004

 

Memory Sketchbook
A sketchbook that experiences life with you.

"I remember Stefano mentioning this artist working with clothes, it was at that cafe, Max Cafe, he was wearing this striped shirt..."

But you forgot the artist's name, even though you jotted it down somewhere. The memory sketchbook remembers like you situations, and organizes your notes and sketches by people, places, even smells.

With Maya Lotan
