Made with Processing. Audio by Akufen (Even White Horizons). Sorry, I didnt take the time to fade in and out the audio so it starts with a bang mid-song. I recorded this video from a projection.

    I love these!
  • flight404 1 year ago
    Me too! I have been building the code for this piece for over a year. It had humble beginnings.

    That's wonderfully epileptic!
  • flight404 1 year ago
    Yeah, it is a bit flashy. Looks great projected though (unless you are photo-epileptic)

    it's so soothing yet jarring at the same time
  • flight404 1 year ago
    It actually isnt too jarring when viewed at the proper size. I zoomed in a bit with the camera so it looks a bit more hectic than it should.
  • LCF 1 year ago
    Ohhh but i like it like this :D

    great work. where do you program in?
    something like max/nato ?
  • flight404 1 year ago
    Its done with Processing (http://processing.org). Its basically Java accelerated with OpenGl.

    Bssssssssssoing !
    great, well done. Is it a program you use to shoot the pictures or is it something like stop motion?
  • flight404 1 year ago
    Nope. The images were made with Processing (see above comment) and then I projected the piece onto my living room wall and then played Akufen really loud and let the microphone input make all the images.

    That's really cool. What is it exactly? Don't be afraid to get technical - I've done my fair share of finite element analysis!

    Damn, I'd love to see this uncompressed.
  • flight404 1 year ago
    I just posted the much less compressed version.
    flight404.com/_videos/akufen.mov

    Peek while its hot, I probably will take it down at the end of the weekend. Its 67 megs and I have little precious space left.

  • flight404 1 year ago
    Okay Buck, here it goes. I have an empty 3D space where I place a large positively charged particle and drop in a couple hundred negatively charged partices. The negative push away from each other but are all drawn towards the positive. That is the basic rule.

    The Audio is being analyzed with a FFT and is broken up into zones. I check to see if those zones push past their assigned thresholds which would trigger specific effects within the space. Really low bass triggers will create new large positively charged masses. Higher bass triggers will rotate and reposition the camera within the space. The mid range trigger will flash the background color to green and reposition all of the positive masses. The high range trigger adjusts the camera distance.

    All of the particles have extra circular elements that listen to a specific band of the FFT and change their diameter based on this information.
