Kitchen Budapest runs a workshop for Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design (MOME) students during their Intensive Course Week, 16-19 March, 2010.
Do you share? Do you like?
The course is titled 'Do you share? Do you like?' and explores the possibilities of interpreting phenomena which occur in our digital life into physical space.
The course is led by Melinda Sipos, Attila Bujdosó and Ágoston Nagy (Stc).
Facebook top friends
Participants:Angelika Böröcz, Theodóra Pásztor, Attila Bujdosó
When using social sites, people are likely to share all kind of information about themselves, without any consideration. Therefore, a huge amount of data is piled on the web. We tried to find out a small game for the purpose of presenting this issue. This is how we got to the idea of using top trumps cards as a sample.
EatUp!
Participants: Ula Kowal, Justyna Brząkalik, Anna Cséfalvayová, William Speed
The aim of the project is to develop a network for people who are ready to share their meals. The project will be supported by a webside eatup.com. Which helps users to search for 'eatup' meetings by area, the number of participants, or dishes served; put online their own events or find people with common tastes.
My software usage footprint - Wakoopa T-shirt
Participants: Karcis Gábor Kristóf, Szabó Amanda
We designed an interactive t-shirt, which is suppose to represent computer using habits. We came up with this concept to amend the already existing website called Wakoopa. (www.wakoopa.com)
With downloading a little software from this website, we allow them to monitor which websites are we checking, for how long, in what ratio did we use different softwares in comparison with each other. We can always see the daily/monthly statistics on the website.
Pop-up Stop in Budapest
Participants: Gink M. Sára, Gyapai Janka, Hódi Csilla, Pető Anna Ildikó, Ráday Dávid
In virtual space we can protect ourselves against disturbing visual messages. But at public spaces, in the city, we can not do anything against these ”spams”.
The main attribute of ”pop-up”-type spams is that they can be closed by clicking on the ”X” at the upper right corner of the pop-up windows. Our action is an attack against the printed media’s aggressive visual pollution by utilizing the same method used in the cyberspace.
Our work is different from public art/street art projects in the way that it reacts to a problem that concerns everyone. A problem that is well-known but cannot be solved efficiently, only by the government – see the positive examples of Paris and São Paolo.

FaceGlobe
Participants: Krámli András
Digitális földgömb, amely Facebook ismerőseink aktuális helyét, online aktivitását, múltbeli vagy jövőbeli utazásait jeleníti meg. A földgömb usb kábelen keresztül csatlakoztatható számítógéphez, és a Facebook egy alkalmazása gyűjti össze az információkat - gps adatok alapján - amiket a Földgömb megjelenít. Műholdas, illetve domborzati térkép megjelenítésére is képes.
A földgömb usb kábelen keresztül csatlakoztatható számítógéphez, és a Facebook egy alkalmazása gyűjti össze az információkat - gps adatok alapján - amiket a Földgömb megjelenít. Az alkalmazás mely a FaceGlobe-ot működteti kizárólag a FaceBook-on keresztül lenne elérhető, és hasonlóan működne mint a Friendsdensity.com oldalon hasonló, de virtuális ismerős megjelenítő, ami szintén egy FaceBook alkalmazás. A gömb felülete, érintőképernyő, így egyszerű kezelhetőséget biztosít mindenki számára, és garantálja, hogy önmagában is eszközzé válhasson. Hasonlóan a Google Térképhez ezen az eszközön is ráközelíthet egy - egy területre, amennyiben pontosabb információkra van szüksége. A gömb megmutathatja az ismerősök adatait is, illetve képes műholdas - és domborzati térkép megjelenítésére.

Open Share
Participants: Hódi Csilla, Carol Burri, Szeleczki Rozi
Open Share is a project that aims to bring people to places that they normally would never go. We asked people about areas in the city that they never visit. We took instant pictures of them and than we installed these pictures at places that they had named. The goal was to make them visible for the people in this area. At every named place we asked another person so this way a chain was born that we used as our map.
