LAND V.0 (WORK IN PROGRESS)


LAND V.0 is a project that investigates physical versus virtual space, and how time, space and presence are embodied via the internet towards the creation of a communicating relationship. A collaborative project between Lisa Parra, choreographer (USA) and Daniel Pinheiro, video/media artist (Portugal) for developing methods for artistic research using telecommunication technologies.
(...)
The project between Lisa Parra and Daniel Pinheiro started as a collaboration within the Minded Motion lab #MetaAcademy – realized during the Bates Dance Festival 2013 – organized by Marlon Barrios Solano, Rachel Boggia, Nancy Stark Smith and Josephine Dorado.

ETP Phase 1 :: Workshop in Prague

In the framework of enter4 – the 4th International Art | Science | Technology Festival in Prague (18th – 25th April 2009) the first workshop of ETP-project took place.So, the aim of Prague-workshop was to get an introduction from the beginning of using the motion sensing system Kalypso. The networked environment »body-spaces_09explorations« was the basis for the workshop – mainly carried out by the TMA.Proposed artistic production, testing, presentation and sustainable application of unique transnational audiovisual interaction sites are based ona) interactive sites open to the public, equipped with camera-motion sensing systems EyeCon and Kalypso (author: Frieder Weiß) and technologies for the control, generation and reproduction of audiovisual processes;b) their transnational networking on the basis of the network technology OpenSound Control (OSC) andc) an original European co-production of audiovisual virtual environments that »generate« themselves via physical actions of the visitors or performers to transnational European hyper-sites of intercultural encounter.

Prague (Ivor Diosi) participated in the trial bridge effort between Dresden and Madrid using this minimalist setup on my table, with my faithful oprec-testing doll:

image 1: actuality 2009-04-25Here's a slightly zoomed picture of the cameras I had at my disposal. To the left is a Creative Optia AF, a very solid webcam in its category. To the right is the camera module from TrackIR 4 Pro, which is in essence an infrared USB webcam. Unfortunately, the directshow filter from the manufacturer's website, which I figured would make its image accessible from Kalypso, and had to be installed on top of its driver, was crashing my workstation. I decided to stuck with the Optia and move on.

image 2: cameras 2009-04-25This is the screenshot of Kalypso settings, using a patch which I shamelessly modified from Frieder's original design for the day. You can notice the ambition to include an iPhone in the mix.

image 3: kalypsopatch 2009-04-25I had had arranged for some port forwarding the day before with our kind netadmin, ports 7000-7010 were being forwarded to my workstation, so I was hoping for clear reception. Kalypso and oscclient installed/run without any hitches. Upon closer look with OSC Monitor, I can confirm I was receiving contourDresden and contourMadrid messages. The later until late at night, and its preview is what's shown on the first two shots above. Also, for the record, I did recognize the movement pattern early on :-)
