Make Art Not Money
summary
A project builds an augmented reality poetry book that uses printed markers, a webcam and Flash to place text between page and screen, which forces learning 3D alignment and a strict 30 fps frame‑rate target. The talk compares canvas, SVG, WebGL (demoing 120,000 particles at 60 fps with three.js), shows a Leap Motion integration (the Leap Motion at $80), reports 90 fps sensor frames, fuzzy gesture detection, a “Magic Fingers” particle demo that mostly works, and a starter repo for implementing Sol LeWitt instructions.
