URECA
URECA (Undergraduate Research Experience on Campus)
"URECA is the acronym for Undergraduate Research Experience on CAmpus, a university wide programme to cultivate a research culture amongst the most able undergraduates in NTU. Though young by international standards, it is a unique opportunity for NTU undergraduates to touch, feel and experience research at a level not available elsewhere."

- Project ID: ADM09036, Student: Khoo Yi Hui, Supervising Professor: Ina Conradi, Category: 1 Title: Reassessment of Painting: Fine Art Painting and Experimental Computer Animation, AY 2009/10 (ongoing)
This research is influence by Research done in NRF/ MDA Co Space and MOE (AcRF)Tier1 RG105/10
Through creative use of current industry standard software (e.g. Autodesk Maya, Next Limit RealFlow, Shake, After Effects), the goal is to create moving pictures of a painterly abstraction to produce aesthetically engaging and immersive experiences. The works will be repurposed for an animated art installation.

Project ID: ADM08044 Student: Khoo Yi Hui, Supervising Professor: Ina Conradi Category:1 Title: “Painting Using Experimental Animation” AY 2009
The objective of this project was to explore image making methodologies using experimental animation that aims to fuse qualities of abstract fine art painting with computer animation. Focus is put on inventive use of fluid meshes generated in RealFlow and custom algorithmic brushes created in Maya Paint Effects to produce abstract moving images that can depict emotive states and represent the idea of flow and growth. The spectator will be challenged in their reaction to such art pieces, and also engaged in the immersive experience to form their personal interpretation(s) of the work.

Title: “Digital Imaging in Singapore”
AY 2009
This project aims to explore, develop, document and prepare the creative integration of digitally generated abstract artworks in both internal and external spaces around Singapore as a part of current AcRF Tier 1 Research Grant. Student role focuses more on the task of developing 3D pre-visualizations to realistically depict the relationship between the art and space.
