<p><em>Een website voor een afstudeerfilm van Michiel ten Kleij (<a href="http://www.redcloakfilms.com">Red Cloak Films</a>) gebaseerd op het sprookje van Holle Bolle Gijs. Deze verfilming is een horror variant op dit klassieke sprookje. Een multidiciplinair team bestaande uit mensen uit het werkveld en studenten werken op vrijwillige basis samen om dit voor elkaar te krijgen.</em> </p>
<h3>Website</h3>
<p>Mijn rol was om een site te creeren die het gevoel van de film weergeeft, verder moest het duidelijk zijn dat het over een film ging (vandaar de filmstrip) en het moest eenvoudig te updaten zijn. Het doel van de site is om fondsen te werven ter realisatie van dit ambitieuze project.</p>
<p><a href='http://www.papierhierdefilm.nl/'>Bezoek de Website</a></p>
<h3>Poster</h3>
<p>Ook heb ik de filmposter ontworpen gebaseerd op een illustratie gemaakt door een illustrator en heb ik wat set foto&#8217;s gemaakt voor de website.</p>

<p><em>I was part of a group called &#8220;crowdconnection&#8221; which was assembled by the HKU to create innovative concepts for the Telematica Institute. I helped develop various concepts including &#8220;Mirror me this&#8221; and &#8220;BUY?&#8221;. BUY? is an interactive installation which changes the way we shop, it consists of an interactive fitting booth connected to clothing items in a store, instead of letting yourself being manipulated by branding and image, BUY? aims to visualise the production proces, designers view and social network of clothing. These elements should have a more prominent role in the shopping process.</em></p>

<p>BUY? was an ubiquitous computing experiment, the goal was to create a whole new shopping experience, where the user was presented with relevant information previously unavailable. To accomplish this we chose to make the user interface controls almost completely sensor based (using infrared LEDs, augmented reality QR tags and an ultrasonic sensor), the GUI is a combination of the persons reflection in the mirror combined with floating elements projected around it, due to the nature of the specially coated mirror it&#8217;s impossible to see how this effect is achieved, where the projection is coming from and where the edges are. A truly unique experience that is hard to describe.</p>
<p>I created the interface elements and a total of 12 short content videos for the first prototype of the BUY? installation, the interface has 3 icons, each representing a different pathway the user can choose, Concept (Light Bulb icon), Production (Sprocket icon) and Social (Heart icon). Concept shows the idea behind the print on the shirt, where the idea originated and the designers opinion or statement. Production visualises the production process and the materials used. Social shows information about the people who bought the shirt, their lifestyle and their opinion about the product.</p>

<p>BUY? was made available to the public for the first time at the Projectenmarkt 2009 at the Utrecht School of Arts, for these event I designed 3 posters and a flyer. The idea behind the posters was to create something visually appealing, but also generating curiosity by keeping certain things hidden. The Flyer had an added function, being a business card for the members of crowdconnection.</p>

<p>BUY? was an ubiquitous computing experiment, the goal was to create a whole new shopping experience, where the user was presented with relevant information previously unavailable. To accomplish this we chose to make the user interface controls almost completely sensor based (using infrared LEDs, augmented reality QR tags and an ultrasonic sensor), the GUI is a combination of the persons reflection in the mirror combined with floating elements projected around it, due to the nature of the specially coated mirror it&#8217;s impossible to see how this effect is achieved, where the projection is coming from and where the edges are. A truly unique experience that is hard to describe.</p>
<p>I created the interface elements and a total of 12 short content videos for the first prototype of the BUY? installation, the interface has 3 icons, each representing a different pathway the user can choose, Concept (Light Bulb icon), Production (Sprocket icon) and Social (Heart icon). Concept shows the idea behind the print on the shirt, where the idea originated and the designers opinion or statement. Production visualises the production process and the materials used. Social shows information about the people who bought the shirt, their lifestyle and their opinion about the product.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Mirror me this is een concept waarbij reizigers tijdens het wachten op roltrappen en loopbanden als karakters in een interactieve film deelnemen, een concept ontwikkeld in samenwerking met Michiel ten Kleij en Sacha Gertsik in opdracht van het Telematica instituut en de Hogeschool voor de Kunsten Utrecht.</p>
<p>Gebruikers zien een combinatie van hun eigen reflectie en geprojecteerde beelden die reageren op de beweging van de gebruiker, dit maakt het mogelijk voor de gebruiker om onderdeel te worden van een narratief met interactie moment wat niet langer dan 30 seconden duurt.</p>
<p>Doordat er meerdere reizigers op de roltrap staan ontstaat er een sociale band tussen reizigers, een onderzoek naar ubiquitous computing in de sociale ruimte.</p>

<p><em>The Virus Free Generation Hip-Hop Tour is a project by Hivos, Alliance 2015 and Music Mayday attempting to raise awareness about the HIV&amp;Aids epidemic in Africa amongst the European youth of Germany, the Netherlands, Czech Republic and Italy.</em></p>
<p>It started in February 2008 in Dar es Salam (Tanzania) and ended in Cape Town (South Africa) in April 2008. In each country a duo was formed containing of a European and an African Hip-Hop artist. Together they visited HIV&amp;Aids related youth projects, gave workshops to local youth and musicians on how to use music as a tool of expression and education and gave a free concert where the local youth got a change to show their talent. They also recorded 3 tracks for the album and recorded a music video together with the media team.</p>
<p>I was part of the media team that traveled along with the artists to capture all of the activities. The virus free generation hip-hop tour could be followed live on the website, which was updated daily from Africa with Photos, Videos (webisodes) and a Blog. I also created most of the print design for the campaign surrounding the european part of the tour.</p>

<p>The website is mostly aimed at european youth, they were able to follow a well known artist from their own country and their experiences in Africa. The site had to be interesting enough for european youth to follow daily but easy to update from Africa. thats why the choice was made to build a Flash based website which allowed for an interactive user experience through the use of photos, video, audio and an artist blog. The website focusses mostly on the Artists and Countries but extra background information about HIV&amp;Aids can also be found in multiple languages. The Website was created in collaboration with <a href="http://teletekstisdood.com/">Beer van Geer</a> and Peter van Beek, and was scripted by <a href="http://mode2.nl/">Danny Grob</a>.</p>

<p>A total of 15 webisodes were edited in Africa during the tour (of which I did half), using the material shot for the documentaries. The aim was to create a short but personal video in which the artists experiences would play a central role. To make it possible to upload a new video every 3 days they had to remain short and small in filesize. All the video was edited on a macbook pro with final cut pro and a couple external hard drives. It made me realize that no matter where I am, I can always do my work, even in a country like Malawi, where even electicity isnt a sure thing.</p>

<p>When the Africa tour ended I was approached to design the CD booklet, Jewel case inlay and CD overlay, which meant converting the style from the website to print. This gave me an opportunity to use some of the previously unused pictures taken during the tour and to include some personal objects in the design that only the crew and artists would understand without distracting from the main design. the booklet ended up being 18 pages.</p>

<p>I also designed a simple flyer with the petition on the back, which was handed out at festivals in Holland in the summer of 2008. The flyer was also translated into German and used for a Virus Free Generation event in Berlin. A Sticker was made and spread through Amsterdam and Rotterdam, everywhere the tour went, the stickers just magically appeared.</p>

<p>When I got back from Africa I also wrote a thesis about the future of Internet in Africa, which gave me a change to put everything I had experienced into writing and formulate a vision of what the impact on internet will be on African society and the youth. To do this I compaired the internet usage of the west over time in relation to society with the situation in Africa now and the possible differences it could make.</p>

<p><em>Wat voor invloed zal het internet gaan hebben op de Afrikaanse jeugd?<br />
De eerste keer dat deze gedachte in mij op kwam was toen ik op dag twee van de Virus Free Generation hiphop tour. Daar stond ik dan, met een onbekend team en 2 rappers in een klein stoffig en donker klas lokaaltje in Tanzania. Een jongen van een jaar of 11 stond zonder angst, of onzekerheid, op en begon tegenover zijn idool te rappen, het gevoel van ongeloof over hoe ik hier terecht was gekomen verdween, en voor het eerst werd ik geconfronteerd met het talent van de Afrikaanse jeugd, iets wat ik de 10 komende weken nog vaak zou ervaren. Wat zouden deze kinderen allemaal kunnen bereiken als ze toegang hadden tot computers en de informatie op internet? en wat voor invloed zou dit hebben op hun leven? waren vragen die nog vaak terug zouden komen.</em><br />

<p><em>The Virus Free Generation Hip-Hop Tour is a project by Hivos, Alliance 2015 and Music Mayday attempting to raise awareness about the HIV&amp;Aids epidemic in Africa amongst the European youth of Germany, the Netherlands, Czech Republic and Italy.</em></p>
<p>It started in February 2008 in Dar es Salam (Tanzania) and ended in Cape Town (South Africa) in April 2008. In each country a duo was formed containing of a European and an African Hip-Hop artist. Together they visited HIV&amp;Aids related youth projects, gave workshops to local youth and musicians on how to use music as a tool of expression and education and gave a free concert where the local youth got a change to show their talent. They also recorded 3 tracks for the album and recorded a music video together with the media team.</p>
<p>I was part of the media team that traveled along with the artists to capture all of the activities. The virus free generation hip-hop tour could be followed live on the website, which was updated daily from Africa with Photos, Videos (webisodes) and a Blog. I also created most of the print design for the campaign surrounding the european part of the tour.</p>

<p><a href="http://www.virusfreegeneration.eu/hiphoptour/">Visit the Website</a></p>
<p>The website is mostly aimed at european youth, they were able to follow a well known artist from their own country and their experiences in Africa. The site had to be interesting enough for european youth to follow daily but easy to update from Africa. thats why the choice was made to build a Flash based website which allowed for an interactive user experience through the use of photos, video, audio and an artist blog. The website focusses mostly on the Artists and Countries but extra background information about HIV&amp;Aids can also be found in multiple languages. The Website was created in collaboration with <a href="http://teletekstisdood.com/">Beer van Geer</a> and Peter van Beek, and was scripted by <a href="http://mode2.nl/">Danny Grob</a>.</p>

<p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/virusfreevideo">Visit the Youtube Channel and watch the Webisodes</a></p>
<p>A total of 15 webisodes were edited in Africa during the tour (of which I did half), using the material shot for the documentaries. The aim was to create a short but personal video in which the artists experiences would play a central role. To make it possible to upload a new video every 3 days they had to remain short and small in filesize. All the video was edited on a macbook pro with final cut pro and a couple external hard drives. It made me realize that no matter where I am, I can always do my work, even in a country like Malawi, where even electicity isnt a sure thing.</p>

<h3>What is MythII Soulblighter</h3>
<p>Myth is a real time tactical game based on squad and unit management rather than resource gathering and expansion. Thanks to a realistic physics engine and meticulous unit balance, gameplay is highly varied and flexible. Originally released by Bungie in 1997, Myth defined a completely new genre. However, with today&#8217;s standards in hardware, the game has grown somewhat dated. With development now the responsibility of the community, Project Magma have brought Myth up to date. You can also play Myth online, both cooperatively and competitively. The faithful fan community that has sprung up around the game as a result, has produced an incredible array of 3rd party maps and add-ons that have further extended the life of the series.</p>
<p>All these add-ons were created with the provided map editors that came with the game, Photoshop, Cinema 4D and a variety of community created tools.</p>

<p>Over the years I&#8217;ve developed a lot of different projects for MythII, all of them offering different strategic gameplay elements such as teleports and a large wall dividing the teams, and graphical challenges such as optimizing sprites, file sizes and color limits. below is a list of some of the larger projects:</p>
<ul>
<li>Myth3 for Myth2 (Unreleased)</li>
<li>Aztec Oranges (Beta)</li>
<li>The Bridge (SF2) <a href="http://www.projectmagma.net/projects/spforces2/trailer/LARGE/SF2_Trailer_Large.html">SF2 Trailer</a></li>
<li><a href="http://tain.totalcodex.net/items/show/special-forces-2">Divided by Hate (SF2)</a></li>
<li><a href="http://tain.totalcodex.net/items/show/grazz-wat0r-and-a-big-tree">Grass, Water and a big Tree</a></li>
</ul>
