「レプリカ」

Replica＝ performance art project 
　　　　　　　　by Jeff Howard and Alex Vessels


A collaboration  Jeff Howard and Alex Vessels for the Big Screens class at ITP. Presented at the IAC building's 120 foot video wall on Friday December 3rd, 2010.

Replica is a performance using live image processing to explore how the awareness of time affects the perception of self-image. 
Patterns unfold creating a dialogue between the performer and her representation, bringing the contrast of control and authenticity into question.

The project was developed in Processing using the Most Pixels Ever library. Video was pulled from a Canon 5D Mark ii camera using Canon’s EOS utility and CamTwist to communicate with Processing.
 To broadcast to each of the three machines powering the video wall, Daniel Shiffman helped us figure out a way to send and receive the images using UDP. 
To control each of the different modes and parameters of the sketch we used a MIDI controller. 
The code for the project will be available on GitHub soon.
The project was performed by Claire Westby with the song “Lost in the World” by Kanye West.

興味深いパフォーマンスアートプロジェクト。

生のパフォーマンスを時間差を生んで、重ねて映しだす不思議な映像。

これからもっとこんな映像を使ったパフォーマンス、表現は日本でも増えてくるはず。
