Jane Tingley will introduce the IoT prototyping platform shiftr for connecting sensor data to the Max programming environment. She will teach participants how to think about distributed systems, and how to use shiftr as a server that interconnects these systems.

This workshop will use the same sensor data stream used by Foresta Inclusive: (ex)tending towards, which was collected from the rare Charitable Research Reserve in Cambridge, ON in the summer of 2022.

Tingley will lead participants in the process of importing this data stream into Max, in order to create their own sound and media creations.

Meet the artists Jane Tingley and Hrysovalanti Maheras at the opening launch for Foresta Inclusive: (ex)tending towards. Learn how this new interactive exhibit translates data from trees into images, sounds and smells.
