Role: Creating image manipulation with face tracking

Project Brief

The project explores new software technologies that allow variables of time, reproduction, variation and repetition. The intention is to question the relationship of architecture to geometry and the idea of representation as a static organizations of concepts. Geometry is no longer considered a static cartesian system, but an array of articulated variations, affected by new instrumental abilities.

Face Finder and Pixel motion blending
Team: Meenakshi Dravid, Nithya Subramaniam
The movement of the object was based on the real time movement of the face. This movement was tracked by a camera. The basic program is written in processing. The video explores the possibility of interaction with media, and how this interaction changes behavior. The 2D object splits to reveal a more 3D space with the movement.
