A new version of the Movement in Space project will be exhibition end of this year as an installation piece. Here are some testing videos.
The work is rewritten from the original web version to a Processing version. The animation is built with 3 parametric harmonic formulae. The outputs from one animation can be used as inputs for another formula, in order to simulate the artificial neural network.

Some thoughts about the recent OpenCV and films works
It is about time to write up something about the recent works (post 1, post 2) that I have done with OpenCV and the classic film sequences. I started the recent version of the project first for the submission to the Image Conference in Berlin and then the Microworld exhibition in Hong Kong. The software I have been testing is the OpenCV library, openFrameworks and Processing. For the final show, I may choose openFrameworks for performance and stability reasons.
Rendering of classic film sequences with OpenCV optical flow
Here are another testing images with the use of OpenCV optical flow algorithms to render a number of classic film sequences.
- Beauty and the Beast
- Lady and the Tramp
- Some Like it Hot
- The Princess Bride
Movement in Void – A Tribute to TV Buddha
Here is the new documentation video of my last interactive project, Movement in Void – A Tribute to TV Buddha.
Motion Template Rendering of Classic Film Sequences
I use the motion template Processing program in the previous post to render a number of classic film sequences from IGN. Through the motion components returned from each frame, I draw a square by picking up the colour of the pixel at that location.
