Queering the Photograph: Primary Archive - Semester Two



Some initial experiments using a Perlin noise vector flowfield. This is a depiction of a water surface - with local application of repelling forces that return to initial position.
Reverse engineering Jeremy Muller’s work Color Flocking. Includes implementation of webcam.
Continuing with reverse engineering of Muller work. Now with Subpixel sample and display, alpha and additive blending and sizing.
Addition of noise algorithm to apply to colour values. Included seek and arrive algorithm for transitions.
Testing a new idea using Moire Patterns. Split particle system into PGraphics image layers, and added rotation to each layer.
Integration of ML Face detection library Face-api.js into P5js code.
Trial Presentation Week. Implemented face detection and triggers.
Some more work on moire patterns. Added a mask to the pgraphics layers and changed pixel displays to ellipses.
Testing of colour palette restrictions to noise algorithm and particle display. Work on warm colour palette for Revisiting the Symbol show.
Some more Moire Pattern work. Added LFO to add variations to pixel widths, added more PGraphics masking.
Testing out inserting DOM elements into P5 sketch. Add CSS styling and scrolling text bypassing scroll-blocker for mobile sites.
Implemented DOM insertion for site didactics. Added multiple camera support for hardware testing. Added optional control of red, green, blue layers for install testing.
Final Presentation for Assessment.
