Lumiskin

Lumiskin combines camera-vision, computation and tracking systems with projectors to explore the way people behave when tracked, and to visualise the kind of spaces their behaviour creates. In contrast to much interactive work, it creates spaces rather than drawings – and enables a complex web of inter-personal relations.

Cameras co-located adjacent to projectors scan the scene and detect movement. Custom software inscribes an enclosure around the moving body, feeding it to the projector , whose luminous emissions of points and lines stretch into vectors and surfaces as they move through the light fog, conjuring an ever-shifting series of territories around the visitors.

Lumiskin is a collaboration with Alex Haw (Atmos).

This work was exhibited at ISEA09 in Belfast.
