Development Todos for discussion with Reza in September

Reza Ali edited this page Sep 2, 2021 · 25 revisions
  1. Only one look - the stream with the body phasing in and out - start and end is like a stream, I love love love how the body appears and dissolves from the stream!
  2. Christien will share her new body shape!
  3. Defaulting to full screen
  4. Defaulting to no GUI
  5. Defaulting to hidden mouse? M to show/hide?
  6. Camera angle adjust - if the camera is placed above or below the screen, so it doesn't have to be in directly in front of the screen, obscuring it
  7. Small particle size: pointsize 3 as default
  8. Going up to a million particles - drop down to select between 256256, 512512 and 1024*1024?
  9. Going up to all the chemicals up to copper in the GUI - not just Copper - the full list here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Composition_of_the_human_body
  10. Dwell time on the body as a GUI element
  11. General speed of the particles as a GUI element
  12. TO DISCUSS: New skeleton structure for how the points are connected - push the hips out a little? Maybe push the neck up a little between the shoulders?
  13. TO DISCUSS: Timed changes between showing each element on their own and all the elements, is this possible in time? Could we add English audio samples too?
  14. Audio output? voices? music? Samples?
  15. The title is now : Sharing Elements
  16. Other looks are now being made as phsyical analogue elements, posters etc. We don't need to repeat ourselves
  17. reset to await/idle/attract state after a set period of losing body track... start again when new body detected...
  18. aesthetic changes and nailing down of mode looks
  19. timed changes between modes
  20. TO DISCUSS: Slower movement of the stream (perhaps make this adjustible) - too slow, phasing lost? How to balance between this and the next one?
  21. TO DISCUSS: Faster body tracking, elements reaction quickness is like a mirror, you see your own movement
  22. TO DISCUSS: Is this possible? Elements in the body move slightly but stay in place for a while once they are in the body, so if for instance a person jumps or spins around you see the elements move as their body
