Thanks for your patience during our recent outage at scalar.usc.edu. While Scalar content is loading normally now, saving is still slow, and Scalar's 'additional metadata' features have been disabled, which may interfere with features like timelines and maps that depend on metadata. This also means that saving a page or media item will remove its additional metadata. If this occurs, you can use the 'All versions' link at the bottom of the page to restore the earlier version. We are continuing to troubleshoot, and will provide further updates as needed. Note that this only affects Scalar projects at scalar.usc.edu, and not those hosted elsewhere.

Rebecca Norton: Sticks
12016-03-10T11:24:23-08:00Florian Wiencekce1ae876f963bfc3b5cf6c3bbd8f57daf911e67f255310gallery2249592016-07-14T03:52:25-07:00Florian Wiencekce1ae876f963bfc3b5cf6c3bbd8f57daf911e67fSTICKS is an interactive artwork made in collaboration with Eddie Elliot.
To better observe the mathematical and pragmatic nature of affine geometry, I partnered with programmer Eddie Elliot. Together we produced Sticks—an interactive site that allows users to see various translations of space following the rules of parallelism that apply to affine geometry.
Synched with the user's set browser time, STICKS animates day, night and twilight hours of the 2015 spring equinox. The movement of the constellations, mapped by parallel geometry, are activated by the motion of the user's pointer in the display screen, producing erratic and spontaneous compositions of color.
Users are welcome to play with and design their own composition for a print with SticksPrints. An exported json file sent to the artist will be converted to a pdf file, compatible with Adobe Illustrator. User grants artist permission to print and showcase work in exhibition and website. Custom prints are also available.
