Indirect

ملخص

Can turbulent processes be used to affect the stability of video’s digital frame? In comparison, injecting such a problem into an analog video signal is more clear-cut. That is, one can use electronic feedback to affect the image raster (its “frame”), collapsing the entire image-field in an elaborate morphogenetic display. However, with digital video, the destabilizing (and deterritorializing) of the frame is very indirect. Thus, instead of an electronic signal, “Indirect” uses a dataset of a turbulent phenomenon – in this case, the blowing wind. These changes in wind intensity, the continual flux of gusts and calm, are derived from a common computer-vision technique. The data output of this computer-vision analysis maps the wind’s turbulence onto moving fields of color.
