Silence Processing final project (2011)
Created by Katherine Lauriault
INTERACTIVE VIDEO
School project: CART-345

Programmed using Processing 1.2, incorporating an input pluggin for the sound and microphone.
This project took a while to develop and take shape since I was and still am, a beginner in the programming world. My idea was set from the start; creating an art piece that speaks about our society as a whole. We talk a lot, yet we listen little. I thought it would be interesting to have people stop what they were doing, and observe my piece taking form. The variety of colours makes it soothing and appealing to the human eye, which was the direction I was aiming for. A piece that is virtually silent but is nevertheless indicative of human behaviour.
