The project is based on and plays with the experimental power inherent in image processing. Images from a video camera are digitized and analyzed in real time, so that the computer can, for example, register a face and maneuver the camera in such a way that it follows the movements of a person standing in front of the computer. In the words of the artist: “Within the scope of image processing, a lot of experiments are possible, and a few of them produce surprisingly crazy results!” One example of this is the digitized difference between two images generated serially (with a relatively brief time interval between exposures) and then fed into the computer.
The project was realized within the framework of the Artist-in-Residence Program.
