Reza Ali edited this page Sep 2, 2021 · 25 revisions
  1. Christien will share her new body shape!
  2. Dwell time on the body as a GUI element
  3. General speed of the particles as a GUI element
  4. 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?
  5. TO DISCUSS: Timed changes between showing each element on their own and all the elements, is this possible in time?
  6. Could we add English audio samples too?
  7. 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
  8. 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!
  9. Defaulting to full screen
  10. Defaulting to no GUI
  11. Defaulting to hidden mouse? M to show/hide?
  12. Small particle size: pointsize 3 as default
  13. Going up to a million particles - drop down to select between 256256, 512512 and 1024*1024?
  14. 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
  15. Audio output? voices? music? Samples?
  16. The title is now : Sharing Elements
  17. Other looks are now being made as phsyical analogue elements, posters etc. We don't need to repeat ourselves
  18. reset to await/idle/attract state after a set period of losing body track... start again when new body detected...
  19. aesthetic changes and nailing down of mode looks
  20. timed changes between modes
  21. TO DISCUSS: Slower movement of the stream (perhaps make this adjustible) - too slow, phasing lost? How to balance between this and the next one?
  22. TO DISCUSS: Faster body tracking, elements reaction quickness is like a mirror, you see your own movement
  23. 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
