Code: VJTOOL
I have an interest in exploring audio and video. For the localhost project we talked about having visuals. Since then i have continued to work on making that happen. I started working with openframeworks and this is one of my projects i worked on. The program is a generative video program. All the visuals are generated within openframeworks mostly in the draw function. All changes are controlled through the keyboard there is no GUI i wanted the person controlling it to be able to perform along with those playing music and making sounds. I felt if there was a GUI it would not be as seamless as i'd like.
Research + Inspiration:
I was inspired by others who have done work with computers,programming, and video. For example Flight404. I also like glitch art and play chiptunes and i wanted to make something that would follow that aesthetic.
This project deals with VJING
Generative video
Iterations:
This is the first iteration of this program. In the future i want to include the controls in the program. For example hiting a key to make the menu pop up. I'm also working on using different shapes or even simplifying the whole program and making "serial" visualizers. By this i mean making smaller simplified programs that have fewer elements than this one.
