Struggling Asteroids / Stars Map
by Sabina Studio / Art and Technology
Struggling Asteroids is an audio-reactive video created by Sabina Studio
/ Art and Technology. She created the script “Stars Map” in Max Msp Jitter.
I love this project because it brings music to life in the form of a beautiful
morphing fabric-like form. This takes not only computational skill but also
a clear artistic vision. The resulting graphics are pulsing and complex, yet
imply a three-dimensional structure by the way the lines appear to stack.
By modifying some parameters in her script, the artist has created both
far-away and close-up views of these 3D modules. Close up, they look like sticks
and nodes (or like the toothpick and marshmallow models that kids make).
From far away, they resemble something like a topographic model or mapping of constellations.
