Memorial Stadium Virtual Tour

2023

A 360° virtual tour Kayla Solorzano and I assembled for Nebraska Public Media Labs. We did the bulk of the work in 3DVista Virtual Tour Pro, using a series of panoramic images rendered in Unreal Engine, from a 1:1 scale model of the stadium modeled by Steve Kolbe, Kayla LaPoure, Say Wah, and Harrison Strong for the stadium's 100th anniversary.

Headbang Hero

2023

A headtracking-based rhythm game mixed with simple mechatronics, created for my Digital Fabrication class.

A head-tracking video game controller created using Arduino with a 9-axis IMU and a 3D-printed headphone mount. Shoulder creature printed from a LIDAR scan of myself, and controlled with a servo. Music composed in Logic Pro. Game made with Unity, using the DryWetMIDI plugin.

2023

An installation at EMA Open Studios in Spring 2023.

An interactive installation combining physical elements, video projection, and music. Audiences control the playback speed and direction of an ambient music piece using bike pedals and a potentiometer, respectively.

I created the ambient music (listen below) in Logic Pro using a seven-string guitar in an altered tuning. I filmed the footage in my backyard, and programmed the interactions in the Arduino IDE and p5.js.
