Audio enhanced optical illusion(Moire patterns), Zoetrope + music box
Viewer’s body motion controls time(audio) and space(optical illusion/animation), adds another dimension to traditional audio visual piece.
Visual reference for optical Illusion (Processing/OF):
Audio examples(Max/msp): minimal sounds
Body motion(front/back/left/right/up/down) - displacement
- audio (frequency/pitch, energy, speed/playhead, reverb, panning)
- visual (size, rotation, displacement, distortion)
Process & tools:
design files algorithmically in processing/OF
export pdf - laser cut patterns
body motion detector - Kinect vs webcam(PoseNet) OR slider pot ==> triggers audio change in Max
Materials:
Enclosure with 2 slots, front and back, for inserting and switching screens, clear acrylic sheets
LED panel with diffuser to light up the pattern
plan A
plan B
plan A - fun, move in all 6 directions, scalable, kinect/webcam more stable setup(OSC), but can moving body get as many frames as moving sheet?
plan B - more stability and control, but limited directions of motion, more distinct illusion but less interactivity.
