Description
*Motivation
I wanted to create an interactive piece that I might actually have a chance at finishing. I wanted to see if I could make object move on the screen by just using my body or shadow. I was influenced by Camille Utterback's "Text Rain" and wanted to see if I could make objects move within the screen using my body. Unfortunately, I found out last minute that my original code was invalid because I tried incorporating original processing code into an OpenCV code so i had to rethink my final project. In the same a way, all the work i put into the first idea actually helped me create my final product. I wanted was able to allow use the participant of this project face-tracking code to be able to move track the face and cover then censor the objects around face for being too vulgar. This is a comment on the screen FCC's censorship on T.V. and "create", in a way, their own art piece WITHIN my art piecelook into the future and comment on what they could end up censoring.
*Interactive paradigm
I wanted to take This would be in a gallery where people would interact by walking by. As they walk by they see that they are being projected onto the physical space wall in front of them and as they turn it into art studio where to face the camera's the artist can create their artwork. The user program will be able to move blocks and other objects on the screen by using censor out their shadow to carry them and place themfaces. They It will be creating their own individual art piece within my art projectread "Censored: Too Vulgar."
*Technical Description
I will use used processing to create a program that will create objects on the screen that will react to the shadow or the image of a black sphere where the user. It can face would be carried by the user or pushed and placed into any position"censor" it out. I can use used the face tracking code and basically created a sphere inside the box that the face-tracking code creates. The webcam on the computer to capture captures the image video images and use allows the code user to use see the captured image and interact footage being displayed with itthe censored faces.  ==Documentation== ==Code==
