Applebaum's Aphasia

[Dara Shayda]

http://news.stanford.edu/news/2012/february/applebaum-aphasia-music-020312.html  I can do much better than this with MetaSynth, given large enough machine to process long-enough strips of video.

I was actually stupified when I watched this.

One interesting fact about wavelet decomposition of the video strips was that, it removes the little discontinuity between the frames due to the mismatch of the right side vs. left side of a video frame. The decomposition smoothes, so to say, the gaps between the frames as if one large elongated image.

Hi Dara. very interesting of you to say that. Thank you for the link.
Is there any video of your performances? Would love to see how you
implement it in your music. How did the professor do it? Thru an infra-
red sensing device? I find it extremely entertaining. Once again,
thank you for the link.

Regards,

-Eisen

Hello Eisen

I am not a performer I suffered from chronic shyness as a child, the idea of performing is just out of my reach.

But I am thinking of turn video recorded (2D) human motility and turn them into musical sounds.

I think Applebaum's was manual i.e. he synched with music, there was no automation or I did not find it in his writing

I agree with Dara. While I'm not experienced in this field, my first viewing, it seems some of the motions happened before the sounds and some of them after, giving the impression of a rehearsed performance, rather than triggering.
