THIS WEEKEND - Graffiti Research Labs, @ Cafka's Veracity event!

Actually, all of Cafka's (http://www.cafka.org/) Veracity project (http://web.mac.com/ringrob/VERACITY_VISITORS_GUIDE/HOME.html) sounds cool, but this is especially interesting:

Graffiti Research Lab’s motto is “Dedicated to outfitting graffiti artists with open source technologies for urban communication.”  Eye Writer is the next generation of their Laser Tag system, which first gained them international notoriety.  Using an eye-tracking interface, the user is able to write or draw on a building’s surface simply by looking at it.  Eye Writer was first developed as a tool to allow the legendary L.A. graffiti artist Tempt, who has been paralyzed by ALS, to continue tagging.  Eye Writer was developed by the Graffiti Research Lab with openFrameworks and the Ebeling Group.
 


 

Performances will take place September 18, 19, 20, 22 & 23 at 19:30 in the Civic Square at Kitchener City Hall.
