Imaging Vancouver

description

Imaging Vancouver is a complimentary project to the performance work Mesoshpere.  Imaging Vancouver is a further investigation to the intersections between body, environment, and technology. Specifically, to explore relationships between individual identity and place through technology mediated representations. 

Participants are invited to interact with the system.  A persons body in space is mapped using the Kinect 3D capture camera.  The depth map data is combined with pixel information from video footage of street level activity in Vancouver.  The resulting artifact, somewhat reminisce of the brain scans reading peoples dreams, is the viewers body seen as individual of components of the video, like a real-time stencil.
