street art degradation observation project

Overview

I started on the idea of developing an interactive tool for smart devices capable of collecting and editing images part of an animation placed at different locations in public spaces around a city. This idea than developed on to more observatory aim and I plan to examine the degradation of theses frames (what ever the format: paper,paint, etc…). For this purpose and as an experiment I intent to use an already existing smart device app and regularly capture the frames of a simple and short movement in their location to rebuild multiple takes of this same animation and evaluate the results.

Approach/process

-Find or develop smartphone app. -Develop animation clip. -Draw frame on to stickers. -Find locations to places the stickers around the city. -Regularly go around and photograph the frames (stickers). -Export clips from each takes to be edited and mounted into one clip for display.
