Dr. Woohoo has created several new installations for the Grassy Knoll Gallery in Portland, Oregon, as part of his exhibition that opened on April 2nd. In this video, Woohoo's Agua Medusae jellyfish swarm together and their excitement is driven by the amplitude of the audio. The jellyfish are sometimes attracted to or repelled by the presence of visitors who attempt to come in contact with them. Using advanced computer vision techniques, human-computer interaction, swarm behaviors and audio/visual analysis created within openFrameworks v006 (a C++ library for creative coding), Woohoo creates an experience that attempts to look at the playful, beautiful and destructive interaction between people and our environment.
