The Type Up

TGC #3

Through the exploration of movement on specific spaces, this body analyses how we humans become an extension of technology, being capable to adapt ourselves in complete new immaterial environments. It uses a sensor (called "optical flow") which detects motion between frames, using video input from a webcam. This movement is detected in form of numerical values, which are automatically sent to a music programming software called "Puredata". This software, reads and formats this data inside a graphic array, finally activating a series of oscillators that generate audio. This work aims to creates a connection between man and machine, causing the body and the senses to become a functional gadget beyond given nature.
