Carvalho used the 1024KinectFun mod (made by our friends 1024 architecture) to produce the real time visuals and 3D textures.ĭANCING WITH SWARMING PARTICLES is an interactive installation and performace that intends to explore the relationship between a physical user/performer and a virtual performer the “avatar” which has the physical characteristics of morphing flocking particles.īuilt in the game development tool Unity 3, the project uses the Kinect and DIY motion tracking software OSCeleton to translate the movements of the performer into the swarming particles. Combining these three elements works very well, as the performance plays on perspective and depth perception to showcase the movement of the dancer’s body.
