lamae video dance test 1

I'm creating visuals with a dancer, lamae caparas, for an upcoming performance -- we've been scanning her movements using a kinect, and here, I'm running the color information through optical flow (ofxOpticalFlowLK) to amplify her motion and emit particles as she moves.

I am working on getting optical flow working in 3d -- there's some of that in action here, but it's not 100% working. When it works better, I'll rotate this a bit (a bit funky to watch from the side / rotated b/c that's not finished)

vimeo looses a bit of the detail in compression (good to watch fullscreen) but the results from this test are pretty painterly and interesting. Lots more to keep exploring.
