The way that this performance works is a large part of how I want to construct my thesis. I want color to stimulate changes in audio and video, on several different people. I also want audio to stimulate audio.
If I can contact the author of the patch or at least this artist, I am going to ask them if they could send me the patch, and then I’ll post here. Or if I can just find it somewhere…
The audio output in this performance is triggered by a patch that has video input and tracking (in this case, tracking the color red)… however I have yet to figure out if it’s actually tracking or if it’s just receiving a yes/no on the red. If it were truly tracking, wouldn’t the audio output change according to either direction or speed or some other variable attached to the red?
Oh and take a look at this SCHWANKY dress!! I am highly motivated and have been for a while to build dresses for womyn that interact with their personalities, their movements, their dream content, their hopes, wishes, favorite colors, etc. Sort of inspired by the era before Jesus Christos and the destruction of pagan rites and worshipping of the Great Goddess… I would like to help the Balance of it all and design clothing that honors a womyn’s Sacred Power and Creation Force. Her womb for fuck’s sake. It’s the Source of everything. See below for a good start to this. Breathe a little power and light from Source Above and Source Below into the body. That’s what I’m talkin’ about.

Here’s a sweet link that is going in the direction that I would like for my video dresses that I want to design. I want to build a dress and some evening-wear that has video playing on it depending on your mood, your activity or inactivity and your environment (soft video panels, like flexible lcd). I want the user/wearer of the dress to be able to upload any sort of video content they would like for the evening or event. Then they can set it to play on command as they wish.
Check it out… it’s not quite what I need but it’s close…
