Modular Solution for Corridor Reactive

Installations

The MSCRI, Modular Solution for Corridor Reactive Installations is an sketch for a set of solutions to create installations which use real time video as the main input source.

The visual component of MSCRI explores light masses in real time working with present and near past of video image. The body of the spectator affects with his/her motion the system, but nothing is attached to his/her body.

In MSCRI the real time video image is self mixed or self blended but it happens using different previous frames. Visualization of algorithms are used as a curtain -mask- behind the video in real time and the previous frames. Additional video filters are explored in order to enhance the predominance of certain luminance conditions. Additionally some basic robotic elements are included in order to scan a wider area with a distance sensor.

BIO

Andres Burbano is currently a PhD candidate of Media Arts and Technology at University of California Santa Barbara.

"Burbano, originally from Colombia, explores the interactions of science, art and technology in various capacities: as a researcher, as an individual artist and in collaborations with other artists and designers. Burbano's work ranges from documentary video (in both science and art), sound and telecommunication art to the exploration of algorithmic cinematic narratives. The broad spectrum of his work illustrates the importance- indeed, the prevalence- of interdisciplinary collaborative work in the field of digital art."
