AMIR SHEVAT: The vision is to take two people, two types of
people who like to create things, developers and
artists, and create amazing projects over Google
technologies.
YIFAT GURION: Where technology and art meet, exciting things
happen, and the partnership with Google puts us
exactly at that spot.
TZVIKA MARKFELD: Developers can learn something new, and
the artist can gain new experience of technology.
AMIR SHEVAT: So we have seven projects.
They're really nice.
The feedback up until now has been amazing.
SARON PAZ: The Action Painter is an Android app that turns
your smartphone into a color brush, which actually acts as
a creative extension of your body.
TOMER DANIEL: We use the Android application which
samples accelerometer and orientation devices, and on
the Chrome side, were actually doing the full brushes that
we're painting with.
The Action Painter is a social application, and you can share
your creation with the Google+.
OMER GOLAN: Plant a Comment is a multi-dimensional, virtual
world in which thoughts grow into trees.
We asked people to send us a text message saying anything
they liked about the event.
YUVAL ADAM: And once we receive a sentence of one of
their thoughts, we would take that and analyze it
semantically so that we're able to group trees that talk
about the same subjects together.
We receive the input via text messages or from Google+, and
then we analyze them using Google Prediction API and
Google Translation APIs.
And we take all of that and put it on a 3D world which is
rendered in WebGL.
EMMANUEL WITZTHUM: Dissolving Localities is basically a web
interface which allows the user, or the public, to take a
tour of Jerusalem on Street View, with audio recordings of
the places on Street View.
And it's basically an artistic tour of Jerusalem.
MICHAEL SVERDLIN: It uses HTML5 features like Canvas,
audio and video tags, and it also uses Google Street View
and Google Maps API.
URI SHAKED: SoundTracker is a way of making music by
simply walking around in a room.
TOM TEMAN: A more technical breakdown is that Android
cameras film the people inside the room.
Using the application we translate it into music.
Each instrument gets a different translation.
AMIR SHEVAT: The Digital Art project aims to inspire
developers that they can do amazing applications over our
technologies.
MICHAEL SVERDLIN: I think it's a once in a lifetime
experience being in an art environment, with
artistic people.
EMMANUEL WITZTHUM: I'm sort of way up there, and I need
someone both to sort of clarify the idea that I have--
MICHAEL SVERDLIN: Someone down to earth.
EMMANUEL WITZTHUM:to clarify the ideas that I have, and
also be able to--
MICHAEL SVERDLIN: Someone practical.
EMMANUEL WITZTHUM: Thanks.
TOM TEMAN:I can't imagine doing something like that if it
weren't for the collaboration between
Google and Fresh Paint.
SARON PAZ: Suddenly I can get a crazy idea, and these guys
can actually help me make it.
