Licensing and Dissemination
For the final project and the work being done during course, I want them can be shared and used by others without any problems or concerns. So I just release all the materials on this website in public domain, without any licenses.
The final project serves as an experiment for me right now, but I have got some ideas on how to refine and make it more mature. At that point, maybe it'll become a product that can bring me some income.
The application I imagine is a framework around the idea of combining a set of small gadgets that is capable of interacting with users and aquiring diffent environmental data and together they form a system that can generate and process audio data. And the project will also be open source in general and the gadgets can be sold as products.
I came from a design background, so I have a lot of friends that are interested in interactive design and art and music, and many of them love tinkering. I'll start from them to see if the idea turns out well, lol.
