There is a post about on the WLP website: http://www.worldlisteningproject.org/?p=834 All the best, Eric Hi Marius,

There’s a conference coming up called Sound:Site in the UK that seems to be relevant to the Cloud Instruments. There is a post about on the WLP website: http://www.worldlisteningproject.org/?p=834

I am a digital frame maker working with illustrator artists. My frames are virtually connected to live entities in the Internet of Things space. The frame senses changes in the live entity by using sensors attached to tags, like a temperature sensor in the very simple example. The frame reads sensor values in real time and chooses from the set of hosted illustrations the one that represents the current entity state according to the artist’s story telling. An example of such interactive digital art is the Temperature Avatar that can be seen live at http://temperatureavatar.com/ Here is an article written by the artist about his work: http://www.underworldmagazines.com/interview-with-tag4m-com-a-giveaway-for-one-lucky-reader/ The digital frame is a cloud instrument as described at http://www.tag4m.com/. Cloud Instruments and associated widgets are very powerful tools that can be used to create interactive art. I know you are doing similar things but with sound as presented in this blog. Please take a look at the digital frame. I am hoping that this concept can be used in your art and research, maybe also as a teaching tool a Scientific Visualization class. I am looking for artists who want to build art avatars connected to other sensors than sound, or if sound is the main research topic for you, then we could build a sound_tag that contains a microphone and use this tag with the avatar digital frame as a kit for artists who want to create art without needing to code. Best regards, -marius Hi Eric,
