The Communal Mirror
2008
This piece takes live data from web pages around the world and
uses the words as colored stamps to draw live video.
It is great for installations where you can't do much to control the lighting.
The installation is suprizingly simple and uses any
USB or firewire connected camera.
*the art.
This web Applet requires a camera (USB webcam, camcorder, etc.) and
Quicktime (preinstalled on Macs, available online free for Windows, Linux, etc.)
For shows, I highly recommend a stand-alone full-screen version,
but this is fun for now. *flv video recording
