    Great work, I love it. I was trying something using similar techniques in jitter only last week, but the result was far less refined than your work ( vimeo.com/2911673 ). The colour and detail you've achieved make all the difference.

    Beautiful and evocative. Perhaps you would not want to reveal your technique, but how are the images created?
  • Ian plus 3 years ago
    Follow his "more information" link in the description.
    Also check out his older videos #9 and #8 to get a feel for where this started.

    this is a burner.
    unbelivable great job.
    every video is 10 times better then the last one.
    unbelivable.
    for me its a 50 stars video out of 10 stars.

    whats the name of the song?
    love it too
  • Memo Akten plus 3 years ago
    cheers man, the song is "Planet Caravan" by ozzy and his gang (Black Sabbath). The piece is totally not the same without that awesome soundtrack...

    Wow, I didn't know Black Sabbath ever sounded like that.

    All your work is such a blissfully far cry from the old "self projection" displays at EPCOT and the like, where the effect was essentially just a colored silhouette. This is truly beautiful.

    what FPS and resolution do you get? looks impressive. I might get into fluid simulations by the time eben though I would propably try to do it on the GPU.
  • Memo Akten plus 3 years ago
    Hey moka, this is not realtime, about 1-2 fps at 1280 x 720. I didn't need it to be realtime (processing video files) so just left all the settings at maximum, couple layers of 8 octave perlin noise, fluid sim running at 720p (which is insanely high for fluid), even optical flow is at 720! - which is insanely high too, but I was gonna leave it rendering overnight anyway so didn't care. more info at memo.tv/reincarnation
    obviously fluids would be better on gpu, but for best results optical flow would need to be on gpu too to avoid sending such a highres texture down every frame

    Fabulous - breathtaking.

    I wonder if you could work similar visual effects with images of water, of mist ?

    Excellent video - congrats.

    Very interesting, I liked it!
    Especially that the faster movements created stronger reactions and vice versa.

    I wonder what would happen if two dancers danced together? And being represented in two different colours :)

    Cheers

    Great stuff. My only critical feeling is that you play your whole hand right away so it doesn't have anywhere else to go. But still fun to watch.
