The final day of 5 in 5 was happy-dirty, telepathic, deliciously chilly, retro-reflective, recursively meta, southwardly mobile, ephemerally illustrated, dubiously conversant, cartographically challenging, mixed, mashed and lovingly recycled.
Andrew Schneider was our final Guest Star and meta-chronicled the waning day of five. As promised, the fivers headed to Odessa where their personal bartender concocted the 5-in-5-Dead-or-Alive [...]

(Sorry for the delay…I decided to delay posting my documentation until today so we could go out and celebrate!)
I started out the day with the intention of doing an ice cream-based project. But when I happened across a couple of working EPIA mini-ITX TC-1000 motherboards that Tom Igoe was giving away during his marathon [...]

Andrea and I photoblogged our way from Brooklyn to Dixie Friday. Unfortunately we had some Blogger settings improperly configured. We were unable to change them from the road, so a friend of ours pulled it for the rest of the afternoon. Great news! It’s back up! Check it out here: http://andreadulko.com/miami/

Today I made an interactive bowl of party nutz, which shake and shout the closer you get.  The ER was closed today, so here is a pic that I took last night of the prepared motors.  I will take more and load them soon.  These motors were then embedded in real peanut shells, fed through [...]

Last Fall 2007, I took a User-Generated class taught by Clay Shirky and for my final research paper, I looked in depth of the Soulja Boy’s “Crank That” viral phenomenon. Apparently thousands of uncordinated YouTube users participated in a loose video conversation where they video recorded themselves, “cranking that” to Soulja Boy’s first single. Along [...]

Starting with a blank piece of butcher paper and a big box of crayons, how well could I draw a map of the world in 17 minutes?
Considering I am the creation of the US public school system, I am by no means great, but would think of myself above average at geography. [...]

10:55:08 PM SmarterChild: What’s up?
10:55:16 PM john dimatos: LONG TIME NO TALKEY
10:55:16 PM SmarterChild: Cool. What do you want to chat about?
10:55:59 PM john dimatos: well if remember correctly last time you didn’t like whole “health care should be universal and our president is an asshat” conversation
10:55:59 PM SmarterChild: Humans, [...]

i wanted to work in public space today. on my walk to school this morning the shadows were particularly striking, so i decided to do a series of shadow tracings, capturing ephemeral moments and creating persistent artifacts.

Andrew Schneider accompanied me on my second outing and documented for his [...]

Hi there. OK, for everyone whose day was ruined by pulling of our original site, here’s revamped version 2: andreadulko.com/miami.

Hey there.  My name is Andrew Schneider.  I don’t go to ITP right now, but I used to.  I was asked by Rob Faludi to be a “guest star” for the “5-in-5″ series currently winding it’s way down at NYU’s Interactive Telecommunications Program.  Today is the last day of this particular session.  If you don’t [...]

I really enjoy the graphics of the original Nintendo. Adam’s Mega Man prints earlier this week inspired me to use the graphics for one of my projects. So for my Friday project, I created a Super Mario Brothers software mirror. I built it using the video library in Processing. I used [...]

Today was the last day of 5 in 5. I decided to take the time today and make an EL based wall lamp. However, my best intentions were thwarted by lack of time and the right material. I would normally have persevered on, but I think that EL material is [...]

(this post is by and large a dupe of the excellent post written by Adam Parrish, who I collaborated with)
For our final 5-in-5 project, Adam and I collaborated on an experiment concerning ESP. Inspired by Ganzfeld experiments and this recent interview with Matmos, we designed an experiment to answer the following questions: Can binary [...]

For our final 5-in-5 project, Anderson and I collaborated on an experiment concerning ESP. Inspired by Ganzfeld experiments and this recent interview with Matmos, we designed an experiment to answer the following questions: Can binary data be transmitted telepathically? If so, how accurately can it be transmitted? At what speed?
Here’s how the [...]

For my last five in five projects, I wanted to do something completely different from anything I had done thus far. As I’ve been focused mainly on making physical things, and finishing the Arrow Flag kept me up half the night, the thought of touching any sort of material or doing any wiring made me [...]
