Brad Miller - augment_me at Artspace_
Date 19th November 2009
Tags art, projection, augmentation, data manipulation
augment_me is comprised of a responsive database of images, sounds and videos accumulated over the past 8 years. Forming sequences in response to audience movement and position, these data 'moments' are animated by the augment_me software according to a set of rules applied to a live video camera feed, and then sequentially embeded into a strip of images presented horizontally. These 'moments' and their agregation track relationships with people, places and moments of the everyday, intrinsically measuring change or transformation to produce a kind of memory machine - an attempt at resisting external ideas of what might be augmented.
augment_me is at Artspace, 43 - 51 Cowper Wharf Road, Woolloomooloo until 20 December 2009. Gallery open 11am - 5pm Tuesday - Sunday
