Repossessed to skate – Session 1

Repossessed to skate is the name I’ve given my activity of learning and practising how to skate (again), specifically in the context of ongoing sessions at local skateparks. I’m relearning how to skate so I can show my kids how to skate.

Repossessed to skate is about having fun, learning new-old tricks that interest me and persevering.

Session description

  • Generally skated around the skatepark, becoming more comfortable on the board, grinding edges and whipping out 180 cess slides on flatland.
  • In the transition, pumped strongly for fakies and frontside kickturns below the coping.

Concept: Air guitar app for mobile devices with an AR extension

What is it?
It’s an air guitar app for mobile devices (iPad, iphone, droid phone) with an AR extension.

What does it do?
The air guitar app allows user to jam to their favourite songs. The app also contains a collaborative feature that allows other instruments to be added to the mix. For example, the band can grow from a trio to an orchestra.
The AR extension allows user to see the instrument that is being played. The AR extension can also display customisable musician specific details such as the Jimi Hendrix headband and afro combination or the top hat worn by Slash.
