Desire lines
1) The document discusses a student project using Arduino to create a prototype that incorporates the concept of desire lines. 2) Desire lines are paths formed by human and animal footfall that typically represent the shortest or most easily navigated route. 3) The project aims to raise awareness of desire lines by placing sensors along prominent paths and using code and animation to show the results of prohibiting their use.

- 1. Arduino & DesireLines DAT 301 Realtime Stuart, Ian, Joe, Austin, Jodie
- 2. TASK • Split intogroups • Using Arduino, design and Build Basic working prototype • Incorporate a concept from the DAT 301 Realtime Module
- 3. CONCEPT • After initialdiscussion and ideas we arrived at a concept of Eco Friendliness • That concept changed after research into desire lines • Lines that are developed over time by human and animal footfall. They typically represent the shortest or most easily navigated route from one point to another.
- 4. Inspiration Gaston Bachelard Dedicated to the study of the poetry and philosophy of science, Bachelard’s 1958 book “The Poetics of Space” looks not at the origins or technicalities of architecture, but how the lived-in and human experience of architecture affects and shapes it’s development.
