I almost posted this video to facebook, then I realized that might be... overboard. Still, not bad for one night. I like my video idea... though clearly I should have stayed still in the middle for much much longer before moving the hand back... haha... maybe I re-shoot tomorrow when its not 1:30am (work is tomorrow double BLAH)
Anyways, here is my VERY FIRST video piece I did after learning processing for a few hours when I got home after work. BTW, this is TOTALLY productive since I'm in a video workshop starting this Monday, y'all.
I think the thing that I like is the weird framerate and the angle / framing of it... more than the crazy filter crap I put on it via processing. BUT man, is it fun building your own crazy filter crap and then playing with it using your laptop camera. Just sayin. FUN.
I had this idea right before I left work of using breath to control video. I was thinking in terms of an electronic wind instrument, but controlling video. I looked up air pressure sensors but then realized the 'build my own wind controller YAY!' idea might be a bit grandiose for my first video project. I thought about microphones and using hissing sounds & vocalizations instead. Stilllllll thinking. Anyways, I was gonna write a very rhythmically complex piece for duo videoist breathers sort of based on the Cage-ish hierarchical structure thing. I'd mainly use musical notation, at least for the rhythm.... somehow I think the workshop pplz want original video notation... BUT I want rhythm and tempo..... Brakhage-ish tempo-structures: wee!
Yes, it is ridiculous.
ETA: I just had the idea of grayscaling the whole thing but dunno. Also, I feel as though these 9 seconds could be seizure-inducing...
