3D Capture at 60fps

3D Capture at 60fps from Kyle McDonald on Vimeo.
Running the PS3Eye at 640x480, 60 fps in Open Frameworks openframeworks.cc
This is an open source project, but the core is going through a lot of development right now. Check out the source code.google.com/p/structured-light or download the capture and decode applications code.google.com/p/structured-light/downloads/list
If you're interested in getting started with structured light, I've written an instructable describing how to use a simple decoder application to make a 3D scan instructables.com/id/Structured-Light-3D-Scanning/
All except one of these were recorded at 60 fps, and uploaded at 30 fps (so every other 3D frame is dropped).

Blue Xmas / aka Noel Bleu from 1024 on Vimeo.
2k9 / Guebwiller / France
Noel Bleu is a video mapping project on the Notre Dame Church of Guebwiller, a happy village located on the "Wine Path" in Alsace, France.
The show consists of a 18 min graphical exploration of the Church, designed by 1024, following a musical ambient score composed by Vincent Villuis.
The show runs 8 times every weekend at dusk, til Xmas.
The video in HD format is warped in realtime on the facade, using our custom software.

GRrrrrridWave from 1024 on Vimeo.
2006 / Venice / Italy
Video installation designed during the Resident Meta Workshop, organized by the EXYZT Collective for the 2006 Venice Architecture Biennale, in the French Pavillion.
The concept is about being able to unfold space in video planes.
The setup consists of 6 synchronized 3500lm beamers , positionned in 3D space, projecting on a scaffolding structure. All visuals were sound reactive, however the video is shot using a SLR @3FPS.
This work has been done by the EXYZT collective, Frz Wunschel and Boris Edelstein - currently the developer of Modul8 VJ software.
Audio soundtrack by LadyTron - we love you !

MAPPING Festival 2009 from 1024 on Vimeo.
2k9 / Geneva / Swiss
This is a short sample of a facade projection 1024 presented at the Mapping Festival 2009, on the Usine building.
Unfortunately, this vid is shot in stop motion using a digital SLR @ 3fps, so we had to speed things up a little bit... hence the audio not in sync anymore.

TETRA.Tennis from 1024 on Vimeo.
2008 / Paris Tennis Masters / Bercy / Fr
TETRA.Tennis is an audio-visual show presented before each major tennis match of the french Masters Serie.
The show consists of a approx. 3 min video activation of the tennis court, just before the actual players enter the playground, at the beginning of a match.
The video content is played live using a PS3 controller, according to the audio played by Fred Viktor DJ-musician,
and then warped in realtime to the dimensions of the tennis ground, thanks to our in-house software.
1024 designed the visual system and content, and defined the ways of interaction between sound and visuals

MUSH-BOOM from 1024 on Vimeo.
2007 / Karosta / LATVIA
Montage of the Mush-Boom video performance in the former nuclear-submarine base of Karosta.
Setup consists of 3 beamers whose outputs were grid-warped.
Video content was done in a week, on location.
Done within the EXYZT collective.

Moe ( modular screen )

Moe from vedran kolac on Vimeo.
Moe ( modular screen ) is a light and video augmented sculpture, based on a single building element that can form an array of different, adjustable and reusable stage designs for club events and concerts. Dynamic structure that comes from the fact that elements come together at a 45 degree angle allows Moe to function well even as a standalone light object, a virtual kinetic sculpture.
This combination of a physical object and computer generated reality comes together via vvvv, a software for video synthesis designed by meso. A specific proprietary patch was built for the sculpture, using the same modular principle so that the composition of the video texture follows the thought pattern of the physical object. Every piece is textured separately, video textures are generated in real time and are input or ambient sound responsive.
For 2009. Illectricity festival in Zagreb Moe was built 5 meters tall and 8 meters wide, out of 180 pieces. The entire installation cost a little bit more than 250 euro to build ( just raw materials )
Moe awaits to be reincarnated in a different body.

iPad - VJ controller?

Tegnap bemutatta az Apple a nagy várakozással titkolt, de sokaknak (kreatív profiknak) - egyenlőre - csalódást keltő iPad-et.
De van remény, gondoljatok bele!
Már iPhone-ra is léteztek midi és OSC kontroller alkalmazások, amiket több-kevesebb sikerrel próbálgattun-alkalmaztunk vizuális programokhoz. Most ezek az iPad nagyobb érintőkijelzőjén könnyebben működtethetők és ha a fejlesztők már erre a platformra fejleszthetnek (tegnaptól), akkor hamarosan egy Lemur szintű touchsreen VJ kontrollerünk lehet a Lemur árának töredékéért.
Szerintem ezért (is) érdemes figyelni az iPad jövőjét...

Carrie Gates (Saskatoon, SK)


Silent VJ clip made in Max/Jitter by Carrie Gates, featuring the glam antics of Murray Cusitar.

This collaboration between Jon Vaughn (audio) and Carrie Gates (video) is an intimate, yet risky, dynamic, and colourful presentation of live video and audio mixing using "no-input" techniques. The audio and video are created live, without using any external sources, such as cameras, microphones, or source tapes and CDs. The audio and video affect one another in surprising ways, but the intensity of the matrices of the complex feedback system are carefully controlled through delicate physical interactions with the machines. Aesthetically, the work pulsates with both human warmth and mechanical error-surfing, creating a sort of psychedelic, synaesthetic effect that hypnotizes viewers in a new world of relationships that are at once alien, but also suggestive of the secret micro-world of electricity and its fluid interactions behind everyday phenomena.


Description coming shortly.

Quartz Crystal could not be used in this case as it refused to render a composition utilising CoGe's Brushes plugin for QC.
The composition was rendered live in QC 4 [32 bit mode only].
Captured in Jing Pro, saved as an .mp4 and then resynced with the GrainStream audio mix in GarageBand & finally output as an H.264 movie from that application.

Abandon Normal Devices Festival-commissioned found-footage a/v performance feat. a soundtrack by dubmarronics. Premiered at Moves09, Manchester, UK, 25 Apr 2009.
"Audiovisual experimentalists Max Hattler and Noriko Okaku present a playful performance with Oh Yes, a YouTube infused set offering a witty 2.0 take on bodies, movement and pop culture." (Abandon Normal Devices)

a/v: '/\/\/\' (by Max Hattler + Noriko Okaku) from Max Hattler on Vimeo.
Fredrikstad Animation Festival-commissioned live animation performance feat. a soundtrack by Rich Keyworth. Premiered at Fredrikstad Animation Festival, Norway, 12 Nov 2009.

"Watching Max Hattler and Noriko Okaku perform is an electrifying experience. The audio-visual duo work so seamlessly together that I forgot I was watching a performance as I became part of the event." (Nancy Denney-Phelps, Sprockets: Nancy's Animated World)
"Max Hattler and Noriko Okaku really explore new fields of narration in animation with their /\/\/\ performance, which combines real-time presentation with 3-screen projection. Interacting with Rich Keyworth’s soundtrack, almost symphonic in its structure, Hattler and Okaku gently improvise using repetitive sequences of animated figures and objects, ranging from simple drawings to more complex abstract structures. Just their subtle response to the audience reactions reminds you that it’s not a fixed film, it’s a live performance. Combining a sensitive beauty with discrete comic elements, /\/\/\ is an astonishing piece of work, and it was one of the highlights of Fredrikstad Animation Festival 09." (Trond Ola Mevassvik, Fredrikstad Animation Festival Director)

a/v: '(O)' (by Max Hattler + Noriko Okaku) from Max Hattler on Vimeo.
a/v performance premiered at London Short Film Festival, UK, 17 January 2010.
(O) - A new audiovisual live performance by Max Hattler and Noriko Okaku
"Max and Noriko first met when studying Animation together at the Royal College of Art. There are parallels in their animation-based experimental, semi-narrative, non-dialogue approach to working with film and video. Apart from their live work, they have collaborated on several projects ranging from tour visuals for The Egg and Basement Jaxx to stop-motion film Aanaatt and Max's latest short film Spin. With (O), their third collaboration, Max returns to his teenage roots in sound/music-making and makes a first foray into live audio performance, complemented by Noriko's surreal animated visuals."

Steel Battalion controller as VJ tool



" It might be silly to keep a giant Steel Battalion controller around for use with two games (Steel Battalion and ... the other Steel Battalion). But to use one for those two games and a custom VJ setup -- that's ... well, it's still kind of silly, but it's also pretty awesome.
One "visual performance unit" called Bonsajo rigged up one of Capcom's indulgent Xbox controllers to control an audiovisual display. It turns out that with all those crazy, light-up buttons, the controller is well suited to use for VJing in dark environments! And it also looks really cool, in a way that we wouldn't expect of a mech game controller at a party. See the controller in action after the break. "

Telenoika (Catalunya)

" Founded on 2000, Telenoika was created as a group of people interested in the audiovisual creation, which desired to share knowledge with the public and to present them the constant innovations of the artistic languages produced thanks to the democratization that the arrival of new domestic audiovisual technologies has meant. In order to achieve this purpose, the Videa Festival was celebrated from 2000 to 2002, and it was a worldwide referent regarding this kind of interdisciplinary events that range from science conferences to artistic workshops or public performances in which the audience can take part. Following this line, the VAX meetings, carried out during 2005 and 2006, showed the projects and creations of Telenoika that visited and took part in festivals and events included in the VAX sessions.
After 8 years of activity, Telenoika has managed to join a wide community of artists interested in interrelations, development and the possibility to show their interests to society. In addition, this community interacts with the society having good contacts with other associations, enterprises, individuals and groups connected with the field of new technologies.
Nowadays, the work of Telenoika is based on the support for emerging artists by means of subsidies for research and grants for artistic production, as well as on the audiovisual training through an affordable and varied program of workshops, presentations and courses. Its work is also based specially on a series of sporadic activities, which generate new creative and personal dynamics and cohesion the human-weave of the association.
AV Lives:
Telenoika joins a great number of audiovisual creators who, in a personal view, develop their creative activity within the live audiovisual performances. This is the case of La Màquina de Turing, Koulomek or Los Subwoofus, who have taken part in a large number of national and international festivals, such as Sónar, LPM, Fona, Bienal de Vilanova, VAD, Rec or Bogotraxx, and have participated in exchange programs with Colombia, Iceland and Portugal. Furthermore, a collective experimentation program comes up: the EnsembleAV, a kind of audiovisual orchestra made up by several members from the group. The JamsAV is another AVLive that, in a more participatory way, offers an artistic expression program to everyone who is willing to join it and play his audiovisual instruments.


Performance:

Telenoika is very interested in developing acts that are open to the stage arts and theatre languages, seeking the hybridization between new ways of audiovisual communication and the historical bequest that the cinematographic and theatre language evolution has offered us. In this sense, Telenoika has collaborated with dance and theatre groups fusing the performance art with new technologies. Audiovisual and interactive scenography, light experimentation and association through sensors of images and sound to the performers acting are a sample of the contribution that Telenoika can offer to promote performing events.

night lights from thesystemis on Vimeo.
In this installation YesYesNo teamed up with The Church, Inside Out Productions and Electric Canvas to turn the Auckland Ferry Building into an interactive playground. Our job was to create an installation that would go beyond merely projection on buildings and allow viewers to become performers, by taking their body movements and amplifying them 5 stories tall.
We used 3 different types of interaction - body interaction on the two stages, hand interaction above a light table, and phone interaction with the tracking of waving phones. There were 6 scenes, cycled every hour for the public.
We had a great deal of fun making this, hope you enjoy it too.

lego_man (Bruxelles)

' VJ LEGOMAN (Yannick Jacquet)
With a background in graphic design and a passion for electronical music and digital melodies, I’ve been involved in VJing since the end of the year 2003. This activity allows me to combine my two passions: music and graphic design. My aim is to create live an osmosis of the music and the visuals.
My sets are in constant evolution. 98% of what I usually mix is made up of my creations, which become enriched weekly. I try to diversify my video sessions in different graphic types but keep my own style.
In parallel to my live Vjing performances, I also work on the conception of audiovisual installations.
My inspiration comes from various artistic movements; from animation movies to web-design, from Russian constructivism to music videos, from experimental cinema to graffiti.
I like to explore original techniques to leave the traditional projection on a 4x3 screen. For example, by using several projectors, other sizes of screens (square, very elongated, vertical etc.), 3-dimentional supports (buildings, statues etc.) or by playing with transparencies (screens out of mosquito nets, tile, plastic etc.). I can adapt my installations to the architecture and to the restricting issues of the place I’m playing in for every event.
I’ve had the occasion to present my work in Switzerland, France, Belgium, USA, England, Germany, Nederlands, Poland and Czech Republic at various workshops, parties, concerts and festivals.
I was resident VJ at the club le Zoo of l’Usine in Geneva from November 2004 to February 2006. I played there approximately twice per month. This concert hall, thanks to its program planners, has developed an excellent reputation in Europe for its active promotion of VJing, in particular with the organization of the well-known “Mapping Festival”. I continue to perform there occasionally.
I’m also participating in several dancefloor and experimental audiovisual projects with the Geneva based team Audioactivity, which I belong to. "

The Technofile Awards 2010 - VJ/2

Best VJ Software:

Winner: Resolume Avenue 3

" Resolume 2 must rank as the most popular and widely used piece of VJing software on the planet, but as its creators, Bart and Edwin, are the first to admit, it has its limitations. That’s why they’ve rebuilt it (they have the technology) from scratch, using a completely different programming language and taken it cross platform (yup, it now runs on Macs too!). The result is an almost completely new program that’s exponentially more powerful, yet just as simple to master. Offering GPU accelerated support for multiple layers of HD in real time, full AV control and support for VST plug ins, Resolume Avenue 3 is a quantum leap that will have VJs and AVJs everywhere salivating (and yes, I hereby claim copyright on the term ‘AVJ’! "

The Technofile Awards 2010 - VJ

Egy kis válogatás a The Technofile Awards 2010 díjazottjai közül.

Best VJ Mixer:
Winner: Pioneer SVM-1000

The only mixer in the world tailor made to meet the needs of VJs and audio visual artists, the SVM was developed with input from leading DJs and VJs and it shows. With four channels of 24bit/96kHz sound, MIDI assignability, a stack of audio and video effects, an 11inch LCD touch screen and a build quality that gives the impression it could withstand a direct nuclear hit, this is a stonker of a machine that sits perfectly between a pair (or indeed two pairs) of DVJs.
"DJs and VJs: unlock your true AV potential.
Designed for use with our DVJ-1000 DVD/CD decks, the SVM-1000 gives you comprehensive control by synchronising both audio and video elements of your performance.
Even audio-only DJs can easily add visuals synced to the music from the SVM-1000's built-in visualiser capability.
Complete with LCD touch panel, an impressive range of effects and 96 kHz/ 24-bit studio sound quality, the MIDI assignable SVM-1000 functions in a similar fashion to our acclaimed DJM series; which for DJs mean that the doors to full-on AV freedom are now fully open!
DJs and VJs have worked together to deliver immersive AV experiences for decades, and of course it is natural that the two art forms are so closely interlinked.
Our revolutionary DVJ-X1 brought the two crafts closer than ever before in 2004, as the world’s first DVD
decks opened up VJing to DJs.
However, a major stumbling block for many was the lack of a simple and easy-to-use AV mixer; DJs and VJs
had to use separate mixers to blend sound and vision.
Now the super-versatile SVM-1000 has the power and technology to change all that.
Developed with input from leading DJ and VJ artists this mighty mixer works perfectly in both audio and AV set-ups.
For many artists this mixer will be the missing link they have been waiting for. DJs and VJs around the world now have the potential to explore new avenues of creativity!

vj torna 2010

" VJ-k, készüljetek: az idei Cinetrip VJ torna március 29-április 3 között kerül megrendezésre – és amint az időpontból már sejthetitek: egy kiadós gyógyfürdős sparty-val zárul. Ez már a 4., és ezúttal az európai VJ-torna megalapítására is sor kerül. "

" VJ's, start preparing mentally and physically soon: Cinetrip VJ Tournament is coming up between 29th March and 3rd April – and as you may figure it from the date, it will end in an abundant sparty. This is already the 4th, and it will also feature the foundation of the European VJ Awards. "
