I would really like to have seen this myself.
we make money not art: Communicating with a goldenfish
Among its favourites is Fish-byte.net,
an installation, by Jason Babcock and Michael Kertesz, that uses
computer vision technology to open a communication channel between the
visitor and a live goldfish, capturing the behavior of one species and
translating it to another.
I've heard of this class at NYU - I briefly thought about taking it myself, just because of the cool stuff it outputs. But the money to go to NYU... can't do that anytime soon! :)
I wouldn't mind communicating with a fish for that matter either!
