Class Blog 2/25/2014

Hello everyone!
Here is a little recap of what we covered in class today!

*Motion capture demo:
     -After break we will be recording the motion capture, for those who wanted to use in their group projects.

*Kinect patch and motion demo
     -We created the patch in Isadora that will respond with the Kinect.  That way we can put video into our moving bodies! 
     -Professor Pagano gave us this patch two weeks ago.  It's called Silhouette.
     -It is preferred that we used this element with the Kinect in our projects.  When presenting, the Kinect will be set at the base of the stairs to capture our movement during the performance.

HOMEWORK:
1.  Create a team tumblr blog 
     *Name it and tag Professor Pagano in it. You should be able to find him as: shreeswifty

2.  Find 10 images and edit them in Pixlr, then upload them to your new team tumblr blog.
     *Pixlr is an app that allows you to edit pictures.  The app is called: pixlr express.  If you do not want to download the app you can go to pixlr.com and still edit the pictures.
     *The purpose of doing this is to create pictures with vibrant color to use for your projects.

3.  Research DaDa and Fluxus and blog about it.  


Have a great break!
