William Aikman

This interactive self portrait was built using Max, Leap Motion and Processing.

Max filtered raw data from the Leap motion. This data was used within Max to control volume and pitch of an array of voice samples. The Leap motion data was also sent to Processing via OSC to control position and size of graphic objects.

A display monitor was fixed face down into the roof of an open ended box. Strips of transparent glass angled at 45 degrees reflected the displayed images. The positioning of the three glass layers produced a 'peppers ghost' effect of 2.5D graphic objects.
