Awkward_NYC/Awkward_Everywhere by Zannah Marsh with funds from the Jerome Foundation Awkward_NYC/Awkward_Everywhere is a collaborative online map for reporting social accidents and small interpersonal traumas that occur unexpectedly in public spaces. Anyone can add a story to the map. The map pinpoints sites in the New York Metropolitan area or anywhere in the world where misunderstandings, outbursts, physical altercations, arguments between friends or strangers, and romantic spats or break-ups have occurred. It taps into the confessional, voyeuristic, narrative impulses that typify online behavior and subverts the notion of mapping as reductive, objective, and authoritative. As stories are added to the map, a series of data visualizations depicting the emotional terrain of various cities will be generated. |

Nothing You Have Done Deserves Such Praise by Jason Nelson with funds from the National Endowment for the Arts Nothing You Have Done Deserves Such Praise is an art/ poetry/ adventuring game, a playland for exploring our ever-present desire for constant and over-blown rewards. Our worlds (digital and breathing) are filled with needless and unearned praise, we are built to love exploding trophies for fifth place. This art/poetry game satisfies your compliment addiction by celebrating your walking/jumping/falling through strange and wondrous anatomical lands.

MARK-IT by Esmeralda Kosmatopoulos with funds from the Jerome Foundation MARK-IT is an App-based, participatory, public art project in New York City. From May 1 to June 30, participants will be able to download the app to their phones and select a color; their movements through the five boroughs will then generate an organic matrix of lines drawn on a virtual white canvas at the scale of the city. The living, breathing artwork will be visible online in real-time. As co-creators of the artwork, participants will receive a numbered edition of the final drawing. [Needs free Google Play APP or iPhone APP (coming soon) ] |

Submersible by Yotam Mann and Niv Bavarsky with funds from the Jerome Foundation You are at a helm of a submarine navigating the depths of the ocean. At each strata, you see and hear different organisms. In the sunny epipelagic zone, watch the fast and massive tuna swim by in schools. Or catch a glimpse of the rare sea pig in the darkness of the abyssopelagic. Each of these organisms contributes a spatialized motif to the evolving soundscape. [Needs Chrome 21+ or Safari 6+ and Speakers/Headphones] |

Panemoticon by Ali Miharbi and John Priestley with funds from the National Endowment for the Arts We know how you feel. Panemoticon observes your behavior, makes a few inferences about your emotional state, and plays music to match your mood. Your mouse/trackpad use says a lot about your energy level, confidence, and perceived control over your environment. Panemoticon tracks and analyzes these data to create an image of your mood, and then generates music, adjusting properties such as tonality (major/minor), harmonic & rhythmic complexity, tempo, timbre, and proximity. Collective mood is calculated for all Panemoticon users on a given site. [Needs Firefox (16 or later recommended), headphones/ speakers, mouse/ trackpad] |
