THE SHADOW FIRES

[theshadowfires]

ISADORA test of new upgraded mapping feature.  Great video mapping options, also can select mapping points (& even the bezier handle points) & link so that point can be triggered by other actors/sensors. Here I was using a sound watcher actor to manipulate mapped points to the audio (part of Max Richter song November). I also was showing how the video projection can be altered in real time.

This is the syphon recording of the previous test.  In Qtz I used the particle & lenticular fx, controlled movement by thru the kinect (synapse for qtz plugin), then layered and mixed FX in vdmx. Then recorded out thru syphon. first experiments with this setup

KINECT - QRTZ - VDMX test

Used synapse to QTZ. Created a particle patch mapped to one of my hands. Then ran the feed into VDMX where I created two versions of it in my media bin, flipping and messing with the 2nd version & then laying them over one another.  Really basic but fun to figure out. The tutorial by Glen McPherson was excellent and clear. check it out at: blog.nelga.com
