another concept we were thinking about
brainstorm of screaming, finding reasons for screaming...
IDEA: screaming out of fear.
a tank is slowly moving towards you.
the user starts screaming out of fear.
when the scream is loud enough the tank explodes into colourful bubbles which is a contradiction to the bad expirience one has had and so arouses a feeling of sucess and relief
when the scream in not loud enough the tank is coming so close that only the hole of the gun is visible which explodes right into your face. A sound of explosion in enhancing the fact that one has lost.

a few concepts...
a concept of a desktop application (not to be realized)
it's about reproducing calligraphy
another concept not to be realized:
interactive interaction with:
installation consists of:
projetion on wall
touch screen in front of him
glove with ir points
user sees the result of other users that used the installation before him to see what is possible
user touches screen sees that he should put on the glove
user can paint when reaching out, pointing at the screen (different tools can be chosen on the side)
tools that can be used to point at the screen (HERE: another idea where AUDIO is included in the installation)
pointing opject combined with a microphone
other tools could be different pens or (for children) a magic wand or a magic wand of a fairy
IDEA OF ONE BREATH (inspired by the hattat - calliagrapher) and visualising this
giving a user a start and a finish point/area or giving him the feeling of beeing 'followed'
REDUCING the idea only to audio
IDEA: game
bubbles/circels on screen, when there is audio the bubbles grow and change colour
when user stops to scream the bubble stops growing and stays on the screen
when there is a new scream a new bubble is influenced
different visualisations:
the louder the further the ball goes:
the longest line = the loudest scream

Nicomachean Ethics
EVERY art and every inquiry, and similarly every action and pursuit, is thought to aim at some good; and for this reason the good has rightly been declared to be that at which all things aim.With this approach all things may have a same goal but the approach is different. If this is used as a relationship in all things, all things may have been related to each other. The start of all is also the end of all.
- Aristotle
What I am trying to say is, it doesn't matter if how you approach a common goal, how you may discuss a certain matter, it is all related eventually. Which gives pure freedom in all things made in relation to calligraphy. We have all been inspired by the calligraphy, in a good or in a bad way, which has changed us already without knowing. All that has came passed is now influencing the becoming.
We are changing, we are becoming, we are free.
