generating faces

EYES EARS NOSE MOUTH

The following images were created by using software that selects and randomizes elements of the face. For these images, I wanted to experiment with similar shapes that we weren't accustomed to associating with the face. What resulted were cartoon-style images that liked to multiply.

THE ARTVERTISER

IMAL, Brussels hosted The Artvertiser, a workshop led by Damian Stewart and Julian Oliver. The aim of the The Artvertiser, is to replace street ads with art using their custom Billboard Intercept Units. I used Processing to create my project, Pixiliate, a composition of pixels whose colors are derived from the ad. Unfortunately, I was unable to see the result of the process due to a few demonstrations and heightened police activity.

Animations soon to follow…

mirrors

MIRROR MIRROR

As I am wont to experiment with abstraction, I used the wave formula to propagate various effects while engaging the webcam as a mirror. As far as interaction is concerned, it probably wasn't the best thing to do; it would be hard for anyone who used the mirror to detect how they were effecting it. But, it was fun. However, for one of my non-abstracted mirrors, I did manage to create an RGB mirror that "prints" CMYK. The further away one moves from the webcam, the mirror's color gamut changes from RGB to CMYK.

COLOR COMPLEX

Who knew my first game concept was a good one? Entered on a whim and managed to be one of two contestants with no previous game experience who made it to the semis. (The other being Rudhraigh McGrath, a fellow Hyper.) Color Complex, a game based on color theory, is still being improved and may one day become a real game.
