01. 3D Volumetric Capture
They used 4 volumetric time-of-flight cameras that captured extreme three dimensional detail in sync. These cameras were exposed with a thousandths of a second delay from each other, 30 times a second, to not to disrupt the exposure from opposite cameras. I really like how this looks either like a ghost house or a doll house because we are able to see through the walls and the people inside the building moving.
02. Sympoietic Bodies
This film explores the anthropocentric and a post-anthropocentric point of view of our relationship between our human body and physical surroundings. In order to create this effect they used a digital camera, motion capturing, photogrammetry, point cloud scan, Kinect camera. It almost seems like we are peering into a very microscopic world and I was really interested in how there is constant slow movement with the piece.
Another project that I thought was analogous to this theme was Kamil Czapiga’s works. Kamil Czapiga uses magnetic fluids to mimic the sort of movements of a microorganism. He also composes sound effects that matches these videos. Although these two projects are very different aesthetic and pacing styles, both works feel like they are uncovering a world we don’t normally see in a microscopic level.
03. Volumetric Selfie
I could not find an external video link for this work, but this project is also working with volumetric cameras. It also reminded me of one of the depth cameras/ and the touchpad we have in the lab because not only is the facial feature disintegrating they only emerge once the person has entered a certain parameter.
