Abstract

Swamp is an artistic production that allows visitors to interact and collaborate with one another through generative music. Swamp marries surreal digital landscapes and interactive music to create a medium that provides participants with a new way to interact regardless of geography or language.Swamp is designed for wireless input so that visitors use their cell phones or PDA’s as remote controls to the graphics and audio presented on large-screen computers or iTV’s. The wireless input allows multiple visitors to interact through the same presentation screen and to use their personal devices for input from anywhere they access Swamp.Swamp was created in early 2001 by a team from the Canadian Film Centre. Swamp has been shown at Toronto SIGGRAPH and is scheduled for its first gallery showing at the DeLeon White Gallery in Toronto, Canada, November 2001.
