Someone has said something, do you?

The prestigious newspaper El Heraldo (in which Gabriel García Márquez worked as a journalist around the 50′s) published an article about the workshop that we taught at Universidad del Norte in Barranquilla.

@JavierTuiran from the newspaper had a brief interview with Cristobal about the workshop and his vision of the use of technology nowadays. If you are interested in reading RitMotion: evolución del arte al ritmo de la tecnología, please follow the link.

Nobody has anything to say, do you?




Aer Studio was invited once again to teach a workshop about interaction design at the Universidad del Norte in Barranquilla, Colombia. This time we worked around the topic of creating visual atmospheres that react to music. The students got into the role of VJs and made a set of visuals that were controlled using a Nintendo Wiimote.

We worked during 1 week with 20 students that came from different backgrounds: graphic designers, system engineers and musicians. This multitalented group of people gave the workshop a great level both visual and technical.

We would like to thanks Universidad del Norte, System Engineering department, León Mejia from Graphic Design deparment and specially the organizer, Marlem Uribe from the Biblioteca Karl. C. Parrish, for giving us the opportunity to participate in this great activity one more year.

Note: we used a blog during the workshop days to keep record of the process we did, and the references we watched and talked about. You can read it at virtualizarteuninorte2011.wordpress.com

This project aims to create a garden office that ask for water, with the help of moisture sensors and an Arduino we know the approximate level of moisture in the plants. When a plant needs water, it changes the animation of the LED corresponding to that specific plant.

The relationship between nature and technology is what motivated us to create this piece, and also, the experience of having a better communication with our plants.

Our friend Roland (a.k.a as Berlin) visited Barcelona during OFFF festival one month ago. While he and his friend Sebastian were at the studio having a profound talk about the future of interaction design, a superb idea came to their minds: the creation of magic with a single touch. Here is the result.

Thanks a lot guys for this spark of inspiration!
