\nIronically, light pollution can be difficult to see. It may not dawn on people living in well-lit urban areas until someone asks, \u201cWhen was the last time you saw the stars?\u201d Light pollution could be described in words or measured in lumens, but on a personal level, it\u2019s an experience. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Imagine you are looking over a city with light shining from high-rise windows, hearing the sounds of traffic. 足彩app哪个是正规的n you push a button, and half the lights go out. You push another button, and they all go out. As your eyes adjust, previously unnoticed stars fill the sky, and traffic noise is replaced with crickets. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

That\u2019s the experience students created with a diorama and light projection in a room at the University of Washington Bothell. 足彩app哪个是正规的 thought-provoking installation, called Lumen, was one of six capstone projects presented by seniors in the Interactive Media Design<\/a> (IMD) program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Delving deeper <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

足彩app哪个是正规的 one-night pop-up exhibition this spring of apps, games, videos and interactive experiences took over the top floor of the Activities & Recreation Center (ARC) and a couple of rooms in Discovery Hall. Each project had a wall in the ARC on which students posted how they delved deeper into the human-centered design process, from concept through prototypes and testing to final product. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Combining art and technology, the projects illustrated how the IMD major crosses disciplines in the schools of Interdisciplinary Arts & Sciences (IAS) and Science, Technology, Engineering & Mathematics (STEM). Both schools manage the program, and students advance in two-year cohorts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

足彩app哪个是正规的 one-night pop-up exhibition this spring of apps, games, videos and interactive experiences took over the top floor of the Activities & Recreation Center (ARC) and a couple of rooms in Discovery Hall.\u202fEach project had a wall in the ARC on which students posted how they delved deeper into the human-centered design process, from concept through prototypes and testing to final product. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Combining art and technology, the projects illustrated how the IMD major crosses disciplines in the schools of Interdisciplinary Arts & Sciences (IAS) and Science, Technology, Engineering & Mathematics (STEM). Both schools manage the program, and students advance in two-year cohorts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

足彩app哪个是正规的 exhibition, called Delve, was curated by Abraham Avnisan, IAS artist in residence and IMD faculty, along with Rachel Raymond, a member of the junior-year cohort.\u202f足彩app哪个是正规的 juniors were\u202fresponsible for marketing the event. 足彩app哪个是正规的y developed the Delve brand and produced promotional materials. Other key contributors were Sara McDermott, the IMD student adviser, and David Socha, the faculty coordinator. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

IMD is for people who like a plurality of things,\u202fsaid Socha, associate professor in Computing & Software Systems.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201c足彩app哪个是正规的y want to design. 足彩app哪个是正规的y want to be with art. 足彩app哪个是正规的y want to do programming. And the way we\u2019ve done it is a very collaborative process,\u201d he said. \u201cIt\u2019s done in cross-functional teams with people bringing very different skills and perspectives. You put them all together, and there\u2019s beauty there.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Emotional connection<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

足彩app哪个是正规的 initial idea for Lumen was an information exhibit where people would use an iPad to look at data and see visualizations, said Rutuja Nehra, one of the team members. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe moved toward more of an abstract installation because we wanted people to have an emotional connection to what we were trying to convey about the effects of light pollution,\u201d Nehra said. \u201cYou’re relating it to your personal experience.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

足彩app哪个是正规的 students cut and assembled wood panels to build the cityscape. 足彩app哪个是正规的y installed LED lights and wired in two projectors.\u202fIMD is a hands-on major. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI didn’t realize how much work it would be going into it, but every single quarter I have worked on a new project and every single quarter I’ve managed to put my heart and soul into every piece,\u201d said Nehra, who originally was interested in computer science but instead chose IMD for a closer connection between technology and people.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI love that we’re constantly encouraged to follow things that we’re passionate about and make a difference in our community,\u201d she said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Other members of the Lumen team were Paramdeep Hehar, Jeffrey Leung, Julian Ngo and Hannah Tashiro. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Interactive exhibits <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Avnisan said his IMD class was like a production studio where everyone had to meet weekly deadlines as he offered feedback and perspective. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOne of the important foundations of the Interactive Media Design program is not only learning human centered design to create beautiful things but also thinking critically and thinking about social justice issues \u2014 and not taking technology and the tech world for granted,\u201d Avnisan said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

足彩app哪个是正规的s also developed these prototypes that were exhibited at Delve: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Gender Vender<\/strong> was a media campaign using a modified vending machine to raise awareness of gender inequality and also to raise money for organizations that support women’s rights. Playing with expectations around a vending machine were students Melissa Jones, Nicole Vannida Lee, Sergio Mejia-Manzano, Leah Shin and Tammy Tran. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Inspose<\/strong> was an app that would allow local photographers to share their favorite locations. It would guide photographers to vantage points and offer tips on how to take better photos. Inspose was the work of Devyn Grillo, Roman Isakov, Jeff Oh, Kyle Rhodes and Jimmy Seifert. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • IntroSpect<\/strong> was an immersive art experience that invited users to cultivate self-reflection. Users put on a headset that turned their brainwaves into colors and designs. Providing another dimension to thoughts and feeling, IntroSpect was the work of Andrea Brado, Jacob Hanser, Mingbin Huang, Kevin Laird and Jacob Luna. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Legacy<\/strong> was a role-playing video game for people undergoing physical therapy, providing motivation and entertainment. A companion app would give the physical therapists a way to monitor their patient\u2019s progress. Legacy was the work of Alex Brighton, Rena Chen, Stephen Epperson, Colin Smith and Chelsea Tao. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • An app for female solo travelers, journi<\/strong> compiled emergency information and included a feature to call for help if the traveler went for a period of time without connecting.\u202fIt\u202fwas the project of Angela Birchman, Su Li, Benjamin Siev, Junior Tran-Thien and Yin Yin. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    Creating experience <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Socha, the faculty coordinator, described Delve as a museum that appeared for three hours then disappeared. People could walk around and enjoy the products. 足彩app哪个是正规的s and faculty could take pride in what they had created. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
