Av Club Sf

Basic canvas repetition with fft-responsivity First time using P5 in hydra. Importing packages was slightly challenging at first, mainly because I didn’t understand the js prototype importing order at first (:x). Got p5play imported and started using box2d with some particle behavior/generation mediated by the audio. ...

performed with dan gorelick at syzygy. really loved working with dan on our concept where we started from nearly blank screens (i started with only one function describing an fft spectrum and worked my way up from there), and was also glad i was able to integrate some realtime analog camera work of dan playing live cello. dan taught me how to do midi interface integration into hydra so that for a future set (when i’m more prepared!) i can control features with sliders. ...

i was one of the photographers for avclubsf’s event hexcode algorave. i was warned the light would be low, but the ever-changing light levels with very variable intensity were among the hardest conditions i’ve ever encountered. tried to rally and got some helpful advice from jason, and just continued to attempt to get the performers emoting as best i could. got good feedback on the set even if i was frustrated by a few of them being blurry… learned that maybe i should have turned up ISO earlier on even though i’ve never really gone over 1200 ISO in studio. ...
