about YMYI:
YMYI - You Move You Interact.
Space where the user interacts with a living image through his body movements.

Conception:

YMYI (You Move You Interact) is an interactive installation, where one is supposed to build up a body language dialogue with an artificial system so as to effectively achieve a synchronized performance between the real user´s body and the virtual object itself. The project aims at exploring a spatial sphere,where the user/performer is invited to develop his own creative inspiration based on his own body gestures and movements.

During the whole time assigned to research related to both the development and the scientific foundation stone of the prototype itself, we realised, in so far as the expectations brought on the user of the YMYI platform were concerned, that we were dealing with two key conceptions - narrative and image.

Beautiful. To improve the framing raise the performers, suspended or on a platform. Or the camera could have been pointed at a mirror on the stage in front of the performers to elevate them in the shot.
