We tried to formulate an Elevator Pitch for Moniker using Google Docs as our collaborative text editor.

Start with 4 single-sentence questions.
Each player rewrites simultaneously one sentence.

We build small drawing machines by using milk frothers.
We connect them to a mouse and activate the pen-tool in photoshop. Together the pen-tool and the real pen dance a waltz according to the vibrations of the milk frother.

A little app that automatically converts a scanned A4 sheet of preprinted paper into a short stop motion animation.

We used the technique of cadavre exquis to draw an alphabet. In turn, each participant would draw a segment of a letter. This resulted in a very idiosyncratic and schizophrenic alphabet that underlined the participants’ individual style and (lack of) understanding of letterforms. Subsequently, the letters were digitised into a display typeface.

We did this workshop together with Edo Paulus. It came from a desire to play with triangle based 3D structures as opposed to rectangular based 3D structures.

Each player adds one or two straws from the string of straws to the main structure each turn. Precise instructions can be found on conditionaldesign.org

A competition between a Photoshop user and someone drawing on paper (see also the marching ants workshop). The qualities and characteristics of each medium are highlighted by the different tasks they have to fulfil.

We took a look at 123D Catch, which allows you to make 3D scans from a series of photos with your iPad / iPhone.
(Note: the following renderings are interactive.)

Collaborative creature drawing workshop. A head, hand/feet, arm/leg/neck, joint, corps, or genital drawing instruction is randomly distributed per turn. When a creature has grown more than 6 arm or leg tiles, it may grow hair, when it grows more than 8 tiles it can grow pubic hair.

Drawing workshop at Zurich University of the Arts in collaboration with Karst-Janneke Rogaar. Participants have 1 minute to continue the mural drawing inside a specific cell.

An interplay between a Photoshop user and someone drawing on paper. The computer user defines white areas using the Rectangular Marquee Tool. The drawn line has to stay within the white area and bounces of its walls.
