Notes
User viewing contexts (on the Web)
→ 1. Plasticity of User Interfaces A_Revised Reference Framework
(2002)
Create motion from the diffraction of the user interface which offers flexible and almost infinite possible renders of a same Web page. The sensible variety of user viewing contexts tells about the placiticy of the user interface. This is the result from the wide range user devices, window or screen sizes, Web browsers, (as part of many other parameters). A first of movement capture and montage of the user interface placticity can be as part of the post-production of my interpretation of the esssay "Tense", part of the Special Issue 13.
Capturing and puting into motion the User interface placticity
Trying to play around with the Browser window resizing in order to create a playful animation decidaced be a thumbnail of the project. The two first screen capture will be the basis of the upcoming motion. I will first try to smooth the window movement and make the two screen capture fit togehter before synchronizing them and looping them.
Smoothing/Combining/Synchronizing Frames
Working from a videocapture and trying to smooth the quiet laggy movment of the window was quiet tricky, I got there after a while.
