interactive installation - 2nd screen

This is a short video recording of the control panel screen for my interactive installation, 'High Park Branches' (and also 'Custom Catastrophe'). The central grey image is a point cloud representation of the depth data that they depth of field sensor, a Kinect, is picking up. To the left is diagnostic information that I use during a session. The red rectangle in the upper right is a very coarse abstraction of the the depth data. From there the data is few into a system driven by self-organizing criticality to produce the activity that you see in the teal rectangle in the lower right. For each frame of animation, each black pixel in that box represents the application of forces to one of the objects onscreen (in this case 3D models of branches).

The interactive installation software was written by me in C++ using OpenFrameworks, the 3D models were created in Blender, sound is handled by SuperCollider, and the sensor is a Kinect.
