This movie was part of my last project for my programing course in Max MSP+JItter...
The idea was that the viewer would approach a laptop that was taking in video through it's camera, and then incorporating it with a program I and my partner made involving a motion sensor, the viewer would approach the laptop, showing this video, and have their own image transposed over top of it becoming more and more opaque the closer they got.
The point of the thing was to suggest that the images of the video were terrible, and we're drawn to them as human beings, but as we get closer, we realize that we're a part of it, directly tied to it as a member of the human race...
I'm late posting it, but I thought I should =)
Sorry about the questionable quality... my encoding software was kind of old.
Wow....powerful stuff...now I'm depressed.
