final project sequence

This is an extended sequence of assignments, typically peformed by a group of 3-4 students. Each team will conceptualize, design, build, evaluate, and document an interactive system with an embodied physical interface, and author an associated research paper and video. We will be preparing submissions for the ACM Multimedia Art Program (Full Art Papers + Art Exhibitions) and the ACM CHI 2007 conference. You can see information about what was expected for CHI 2006.

For this final project sequence, there are extra rules. All deliverables must be completed, and on time. 1 point per day will be deducted from your grade for each day late for each deliverable. The reason for this is to force you to do all the steps, which will certainly result in better projects.
