VirtuOso
January - May 2019
Overview
VirtuOso connects to a drawing app that charges your vibrator while you make art. The longer you doodle, draw, or write using the app, the longer you can use your virtuOso vibe! You can also set your virtuOso to ‘live mode’ for instant positive reinforcement as you make art ;)
With virtuOso, you align the body’s built-in reward system with making art. By autonomously—and autonomically— triggering reward for creativity, it becomes more tangible, achievable, and frequent. More practice, more pleasure!
My role
This project was a collaboration with Gabriella Garcia who let the idea development, video, design. I was the creative technologist on the project and was responsible for the creative development, technical direction, fabrication and programming of the vibrator.
