묘화(妙火, Mysterious fire), 2014

credits SILO Lab.

I’ve become curious about how individuals would feel when they could not get to see familiar objects any longer. Incandescent lamps have been forgotten among people. They are replaced with the other things due to some logical reasons, and regulations have kept them from being produced in more numbers. Well, I did not use incandescent lamps that much. Although I did not cherish them that much, I am giving my farewell to those who are becoming hard to be found.

Lower Cut - (some random summer) Rain

credits lowercut,vux,unc,m4d,dottore,colorsound,microdee

Dear vvvvsers, I am pleased to introduce to you one of the first (if not the only) video-clip production in Greece, made by free and open-source software. Specifically, in order to complete the project vvvv and DirectX11/HLSL were used for both the initial composition of the image and the addition of visual effects. Furthermore, Blender was utilized for the editing, post-processing and final export of the film.

Big thanks goes to,
vux, unc, m4d, dottore, colorsound, microdee for their constant and valuable offer via the vvvv community forum.

TING – DEMOCRACY AND TECHNOLOGY

credits tamschick,vux,aivenhoe,colorsound

Visitors pass different zones while moving through the exhibition.
The Intro shows illustrations of 8 Objects representing the technologies to be discussed in the upcoming „TING“-Debates combined with contradictory quotes reflecting on the relationship between democracy
and technology.

Then a basic wooden block, analog to the digital pixel, becomes a haptic tool for visitors to trigger digital interactions within the exhibition and to cast their votes within the TING.

Moving further a section with iconic objects serves as case study area, that demonstrates that the value and impact of the technologies behind can be interpreted in many positive and negative ways.
There is not one meaning or truth, but many possible uses and impacts.

The centerpiece of the exhibition is the grand amphitheater-like space of the TING

Wu Kingdom HelV Relics Museum

The completely projected 400 sqm space interactively tells the story of the Kingdom Wu.

Visitors are immersed in a 15-minute story about the rise of the Kingdom of Wu during the Spring and Autumn Period between 514–496 BC. We created a unique visual style as a mix of cinematic martial arts scenes shot in Shanghai combined with paint-style animations.

The completely projected 400 sqm space interactively tells the story of the Kingdom Wu.

The linear storytelling is enhanced with interactive elements that reinforce the visitors’ feeling of being transported back in time, away to king HelV’s coming into power, his fight for hegemony, the victory at the battle of Boju and other great legends of that period.

Hyperbook

Hyperbook is a low cost, interactive media station, inspired by the MIT “NeverEnding Drawing Machine”, that turns a book into a support for different types of content unrelated to its paper nature.

Hyperbook was realized with the multipurpose toolkit vvvv by the students of the “Creative Coding and Video Music Course” of the Academy of Fine Arts, Urbino Italy.

Students: Alessandra Giannotta, Caterina Lani, Stefano Mancini, Qin Qi. Professor: Davide Riboli.

Aristocrazy MBFW Making of

credits Geometrica Studio

After some months busy, we are proud to show the making of the Fashion Week Parade show For Aristocrazy Jewels in Madrid.
A real challenge in my career , and a big step for Geometrica.
15 minutes of show, handle by VVVV .
All the aspects of the show where controlled by the underestimated and useful timeliner node. Dont ask how i achieved it, just after lots of nights without sleep.
I developed a custom Video to DMX Module to to control Led strips and moving heads, and lots of realtime patches for the LED Screens,all in symphony with a midi timecode.

Hardware used:
2 PC workstations running vvvv (DMX, Motion Graphics and Video)
1 Imac´s (audio control + madmapper).
24 Sharpy moving heads.
100 mt Of white LED strip.
25 mt of RGB LED strip.
5 DMX dimmers 27 channels.
Martin F20 led screen.
PROLED 6 mm led screen.
Chamsys MagicQ Console

Thanks to all the crew for the support , it was an amazing experience,
Enjoy!
Please, use CC subtitles.

Composition for a drone

credits Music composition: Mária Júdová Tracking system: Andrej Boleslavský ((user:id144)) Camera and editing: Mária Júdová Sound: Petr Zábrodský Thanks to: Institute Of Intermedia

http://mariajudova.net http://id144.org

Short music piece composed specifically for AR.Drone 2.0 Parrot Quadricopter. It consists of the sound synthesis generated by Drone’s movement in the space as well as the sound of engines. When the tracker detects the drone flying in defined area it generates data, which is then interpreted using a pre-defined algorithm in an open source visual programming language Pure Data. In this way the Drone shapes and structures musical material and becomes an instrument.

Drone is controlled via FreeFlight application running on iPad. Depth image from Kinect sensor is evaluated by the Kinect Virtual Hitboxes DX11 patch in vvvv which detects the drone’s location in the space (more precisely its relative position inside the bounding-box). A vvvv is sending it to Pure Data, which are transmitting it to a music system. When a quadcopter flies into the defined area it generates musical pattern sequences based upon a predefined algorithm. In this way the drone takes control over the sound synthesis.
