Although the documentation of GA Flash Tracking is not explicit about its use with Adobe AIR applications, the implementation of pure AS3, non JavaScript dependent, methods to communicate with GA serves enables its use with Adobe AIR. I am using it and having good results.

An AS3 YouTube Player wrapper that uses LocalConnection, not ExternalInterface. This enables its use with Adobe AIR.

Client: Oi (the biggest telecom company in Brazil) 

Last weekend, me and Alexandre Porres, Fernando Iazzetta, Francisco Serpa, Lilian Campesato and Vitor Kisil presented two performances at FILE Rio, Sonocromática and Teia. The festival took place at Oi Futuro, a cultural center focused on art and technology, sponsored by Oi company.

Sonocromática is based on the work of brazilian artist Abraham Palatnik, a pioneer in kinetic art. I developed all the animations used in this performance with Flash. In the third part of the performance, the performer (Serpa) uses a web cam to record blinking lights. The images are projected with a kind of stripe effect, making a reference to the Progressions paintings, by Palatnik.

In February, I developed the code to run Cigarras, a work by Gisela Motta and Leandro Lima, composed by ten buzzers. They are controlled by an Arduino board, which runs the code I wrote. The buzzers are spreaded across the front wall of Galeria Vermelho, in their exhibition at the gallery, which lasts until the end of March in São Paulo.

I am learning Pixel Bender and I couldn’t resist temptation to writing code to create the pattern used in sidewalks of São Paulo. I had completely forgotten the equation of line, so I need to say thanks to my friend Lucas for making me remember the Math classes.

I am finishing my master dissertation and, when I can’t write anymore, I use my time to do things that I should have done several months ago. Today, I inserted two works in my portfolio: Teia (web), a sound performance, composed with some artists and friends, and Invisible Mazes. I really love the sound of duct tapes used in Teia, and I am looking for a good video / sound recording to publish in the portfolio, together with the images.
