What is 'analog Not analog'?
aNa is a live coding system for visuals. aNa is an approach about inserting textures and shapes from the natural environment into computer generated graphics. aNa tries to reduce the difference between analog video technology, glitch art and digital animation. The aNa display server can mix generative code fragments with different inputs channels in real-time: a WEB cam, a microphone, movie files, image sequences, a joystick or data received from Open Sound Control. read more
The 'analog Not analog' cookbook.
Here you will find sketches showing how to work with aNa. These examples also include strategies how to couple aNa with other programs via Open Sound Control (OSC). Using SuperCollider as an example, but aNa open to the whole OSC world. read more
Patterns from the loop / visual feedback
Create animations with a combination of self-programmed filters and visual feedback loops. The lack of control of this workflow leads to surprising visual patterns. Some of the patterns and effects are created by the camera capturing its own image. There are additional mirrors and glasses in the optical axis. I combine this imaging technique with self-developed software. All programs are available as open source. read more
Glitch-Kamera, Creative Coding und visuelle Rückkopplung.
Photographieren mit einer Kombination aus selbst programmierten Filtern und Rückkopplungsschleifen. Keine Beauty-Filter dafür Glitch. Die mangelnde Kontrolle dieses Datenflusses führt zu überraschenden visuellen Mustern. Die Algorithmen der Glitch-Kamera verändern das Bild während der Aufnahme direkt im Smartphone oder Laptop. Die Manipulation des Bildes geschieht durch selbst entwickelte Open Source Software. Diese Algorithmen sind während der Aufnahme am Smartphone parametrisierbar. Ein Teil der Aufnahmen entsteht durch Kamera – Spiegel - Display – Rückkopplungsschleifen. read more
