BORDER COURTESY OF
Much of my own work has been directed at
wearable computing and wearable AR. I brought
many of my childhood inventions to MIT and founded
the MIT wearable computing project
as its first member.
television camera at a television receiver that was picking
up the signal from the camera. However, rather than
move the camera around a stationary TV set like everyone else did, I let the camera remain stationary, and
moved the TV receiver around the room.
I was amazed by what I discovered. The way the TV
glowed brilliantly when the camera could "see" it, and
less brilliantly when the camera could not see it, allowed
me to "sweep" the TV back and forth to "display" the
camera's capacity to "see." In this way, I was less interested in the fractal or self-similar recursive patterns on
the screen that other artists were interested in creating
[1] and more interested in thinking of the camera's sight
field as the subject matter of the art (Figure 1).
The glow from the TV allowed me to see an otherwise invisible thing-the camera's capacity to see.
This was an early form of augmented reality (AR)
in which the glow from the TV was overlaid on top
of the physical space around the camera, thus making additional information around the camera visable. I call this phenomenaugmented reality, i.e.,
augmenting reality with physical phenomena and
phenomenology.
Ar FrOM A LIgHT BuLB
I soon realized that I did not need to haul around an
entire TV set, and that I could connect television
receiving circuits to an amplifier feeding into a
light bulb. Back in those days, many CE devices
had wiring diagrams, schematic diagrams, and
parts lists printed on their back panels (unlike
today where manufacturers keep processes secret
while they collect all kinds of information about
us). So I simply tapped into the video amplifier
output of a television receiver and connected that
to a power amplifier that had enough power to
