Progress
Measuring the distance between the dispenser and the tissue roll
Switch for the dispenser(triggered the button in the dispenser)
Keyboard hacking
After the trial and error (3 keyboard are wasted) i decided to use the gamepad hacking which proves to be more durable and accurate (but certain software needs to be downloaded)
Statement
Papercut
Never knew it could kill - papercut as we all know can hurt us,but here metaphorically indicates the papercut that is used on toilet roll.The papercut here actually kills a tree thus the used of statement "never knew it could kill".Whenever the user plays the installation they will somehow notices that a tree will be less and less and they will contribute more to global warming.
Objectives - to educates the user on how a simple act such as save/recycle of toilet roll can help save the tree and prevent global warming.
The change of earth color from normal to red (indicates hot) shows the user and make the user thinks on what kind of world do they prefer to live in. The 'healthy' earth can be maintained if user helps to reduce/recycle the use of toilet roll.

Progress and Development
Modelling/map/texture
Video of earth rotating(normal to red)
3D/Artist impression
Programming early stage(beta testing)
on (release, keyPress "") {
gotoAndPlay("normal");
for (var i = 0; i <= 5; i++) {
this._alpha -= 0.1;
updateAfterEvent();
}
}

Poster Design
The poster is design using the globe itself as it is the most crucial part in the artwork where the earth will change it color whenever the user play the installation. The design of earth with a vase/pot below it somehow indicates that the world need to be taken care of and we need to nourish it and not destroy it.The flame at the end of the branch showing the world that we are living now that emphasizing too much on modern development that we forgot about the importance of green/trees to the world.
Budget Planning & equipment list
The installation will consist of :
22'inch monitor - rent
Button/keyboard - buy(rm40)
Toilet roll dispenser-buy(rm70)
Recycle Bin-buy(rm20)
Others
Wire-rm3
Props-personal used
the keyboard will be hacked to integrates with the button

Project development and programming
Interface/visualization
Some of the proposed interface for the installation
Interface 1 where the earth is still green
Interface 2 where the tree starts to fall
This is the interface that i yet to decide for my work. The green area resembles tree in each continent and a will turn to red (indicates danger) whenever a button is triggered (the use of toilet roll). It shows the idea of tree being destroy whenever they use the toilet roll.

This are some of the example of image that i intend to do with 3d, i will try to upload it later :)

Prototype 2
This is some of the element/hardware that's going to be used for my artwork
Button to triggered the Recycle Bin
Button2 used to triggered the Toilet paper dispenser
Toilet paper dispenser (jumbo)
----ordered already, but still haven't arrived yet, cause you need to rent/buy an amount of toilet roll that they supply in order for you to get the dispenser (mostly restaurant, hotel and etc), so getting the dispenser alone meaning you had to wait :( ----
Extra
Some work with the keyboard hacking need to be done and instead of using a projector, i decide to use the 22' inch monitor, as the booth is designed to resemble a bathroom.
