AATB

I had an internship at AATB in Marseille where I learned how robots can be used for creating generative design using different tools.aatb.ch For example spraying on tees and hats at Adidas Originals event.(Agency: @the_midnight_club Creative Concept: @aldokahane & @jameshayeswho)
A larger scale AATB project I am collaborating on is WOOL TOOLS.It is an ongoing research robotic felting project which combines the wool felting technique with robotic manufacturing. Exhibited in Milano – Alcova.I worked on the software side, generating textures, communicating with robot and creating the website.wool-tools.com

 

 

Public art

Art installation presenting unique public art (60s – 80s in Bratislava) which is often neglected and destroyed.Viewers can interact with digitalized public art using stone motion controller – stone as a material lost in digitalisation. Displayed object is moving the same way as a controller.Viewers throw light onto the public art objects whenever they walk around the installation – camera is recognising motion in front of installation which is then projected in the form of glowing silhouettes onto the object.

 

 

Ordinaments are fragments of reality – ordinary objects which are not hard to find. The commonness of ordinaments makes them overlooked and underestimated for residents of the city. But a closer look can reveal their uniqueness. Ordinaments are captured by 3D scanning technology which isolates small fragments from the surroundings, the rest is left to viewer’s imagination. The sound completes the atmosphere of the specific moment.ordinaments.xyz 

 

 

Personal receipt

Personal Receipt is a receipt generator. After using a card, a pixel-style receipt is printed. The receipt contains the face of the person for whom the notebook was printed, inscriptions and icons related to consumer and consumer goods.

In my project, receipts are the main output, not just a by-product of purchase. After using the card, no information is printed on how much money we have spent, but strong inscriptions and icons point to the negative consequences of shopping and consumption. Each receipt has its own theme expressed by percentages, facts and icons. To create a more personal dimension, the face of the person who attaches the card is also printed on the pad. Because it affects us all equally.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

My bachelor thesis studies a problem of user experience testing. The aim of the study is to reveal relationships between results of objective and subjective evaluation methods where the EEG data from human brain and user activity represent the objective methods, and answers to questionnaire questions represent the subjective method. User experience testing is performed individually with 20 participants. After analyzing the results, relationships in the data are found and the data are visualized in a form of poster series.
