Soft Spaces
It is series of classic video processing algorithms that uses the webcam input as a source and the browser as performance space; it helps us to rediscover the affordances of movement and perception augmented by computational systems and strategies. The space of the frame is choreographed and remapped in coupling with user/performer. Soft Spaces represent the cognitive continuity of software, interface and embodiment. They are invitations to create and compose.
"Canonical (Soft Space #1)
The computer recomposes time and space creating and generating always new space-time loops and rhythms. Pachebel’s canon in D is offered as a meta-logical pattern and a context for image recomposition with repetitions, juxtapositions and counterpoints.
