PROJECT: SemiConductor [2018]

Very proud of my team for this fab experiment from our Creative Lab Fivers.

Semi-Conductor puts you in front of your very own AI orchestra. It uses Tensorflow & PoseNet to allow you to conduct music by moving your arms, using only your browser and a webcam.

For us, it was a fun experiment in AI and interfaces – how can AI help us interact with computers more naturally? Can we control music the way a real conductor would, instead of with buttons and a screen?

You can find it on the Experiments page here, and YouTube here, and here's the direct link.

Semi-Conductor was built with beautiful design & UX from Melissa Lu and Haylie Craig, who were absolutely instrumental in the core of the project.

PROFILE: Simpleweb [2017]

Why aren’t we finding ways of building the information that we want into the way we want to experience the environment, rather than the way we’re told to experience the environment?

Tea Uglow is the Creative Director of Google’s Creative Lab in Sydney, although she prefers a Google (mis)Translate version of the title – Experimental Person in Charge.

Tea leads a team exploring “the spaces between contemporary digital technology and traditional forms of creativity and culture. That might be with museums, galleries, working with artists, filmmakers or writers and looking at what happens when those intersect.”
