this is created using a processing sketch provided by don whitaker. videoslice. // The sketch takes a Quicktime as input, slices it up, and spits out a transformed version of the source movie.
// Each frame of the processed video is a horizontal stack of a 1 pixel, vertical slices of a video image. The left of the frame is the beginning of the video clip, the right side is the end. The animation effect is created by moving the location of the vertical slice from the left of the original video frame to the right. In effect, swapping time and space.
// the input movie is ripped from somewhere at apple.com, displaying a ballet dancer performing a 720° jump in reeeaaally slow motion

This is an ‘early current state of app’ demo for a multi-discipline event I’m working on with Streetwise Opera ( streetwiseopera.org ), Mira Calix ( miracalix.com ) and fellow visualists Flat-e ( flat-e.com ), to be showcased at the Royal Festival Hall later this year with quite a few more venues lined up.

The app was written in Processing 0135 and is running realtime at 60fps, though if I add another couple hundred eels it does drop, so I may switch to OpenFrameworks if performance does become an issue (which it probably will). There are occasional freezes in the video which happened while capturing the screen so that is a bit annoying.

I’m controlling the eels using the mouse, keyboard and Quartz Composer (just simple sliders sending OSC to vary some parameters - similar to the ‘magnetic force fields’ video - I’m quite into this technique now, very quick and easy to setup, and you can have loads of sliders with descriptive names at your disposal to play with, and adjust your internal variables in realtime for tweaking heaven).

The final show will have many many more features, both in the digital realm, and physical… more info coming soon…

Hey I played around with the focus feature of the sunflow implementation for processing. The image was from a tutorial. For the code go search here: rudevoltage.ch/index.php?id=70

A quick play with Potemkin Panic! 4 arcade machine. The user can mess up with Eisenstein’s most famous work using videogame controllers.

Longer and more interesting version of this to come when I figure out how to deal with gigabyte pcap files that cause wireshark to crash on me.

Velodyne needs more than 26 degrees vertical angle of view, because this aspect ratio (14ish to 1) is ridiculous. I’ve cheated and stretched things vertically a little.

This is the ‘velodyne 3′ data set.

Loosely inspired by that Cut Chemist video, vimeo.com/1478602, and panquake from years back…

I tried to replace a much shorter test version of this with the ‘replace video’ function, but it screwed up and apparently that video is lost- so note to self and everyone else- don’t try to replace videos you care about. But the point of that other video is that the VP61 format produced by makeavi works well, this video is a full length version in the same format.

A one and a half minute excerpt of a composition that iterates through every song you could possibly play using the twelve notes of the chromatic scale, as quickly as possible.

As quickly as possible means: each chord lasts one wavelength of the lowest note.

(The sync is off a bit near the beginning.)

Vello Virkhaus’ V Squared Labs takes on some of the biggest jobs around, and has put together 12,000 pixel wide, surround visuals for the Rok Vegas club in Las Vegas. It’s super-gaudy stuff, but I’m guessing the word “subtle” didn’t feature in the brief from this client.

Aesthetics aside, those demo videos are a great way of showing off surround content. If you’d like your 360 to be a little less commercial, how about this video for Cut Chemist’s “1st Big Break”:

They’re going a little bit far calling this “The first music video ever shot with a 360 degree panoramic lens”, but it definitely has other things going for it.
