Week 1

This flowgraph is to measure the speed of player followed by Vhin's tutorial.

These videos are demonstration of the flow graph above.

1st video shows the smaller number because the player is walking up the hill in comparison, the second video shows the higher number caused by the player going down the hill. 

My chosen Pachube feed

Creating Space with Light

S.W.O.T

 The Idea is clearly described and unique, Yet It could easily be employed into the public space in the kind of situation that no one is present to control the light.  Instead of setting the timer to turn the switch on and off, to can be automated through Pachube feed, also the amount of light can possibly be changed by the number of people. Simply when there are fewer people in the room there is no necessity to have a bright light.

The feed does not show the movement of the actual measurement and it is not live, also the graph suddenly jumps up and goes down and finishes the experiment, so Information is not clear enough to indicate the real result.

O-

It is very hard to physically simulate people’s movement. Perhaps analytic engine can bring a good economical simulation with the invention and combination of the flow graphs. Number of different situation and different kind of attraction for people could be created to calculate the people’ movement and typical behavior.

Also this could be used to measure the size of the room needed during the design process. 
The amount of light could represent the temperature as well.

I feel apprehensive about using this feed but I guess I need to investigate what this person has done. Also because of the lack of the clarity of this feed the idea of the Pachube can be miss read.
