Nick Conbere, Department of Art, has been granted one of five IUP Innovation Awards for his proposal to create an interactive, animated drawing.
This award will fund a one-year project in which Conbere will collaborate with computer programmer Ben Etten. The goal of the project is to create a large, hand-drawn landscape, projected onto a wall, which explores relationships between the man-made and natural worlds. The imagery will unfold over time as the viewer investigates the scenery and influences the look of the drawing using an Xbox game controller.
