Visiohypnotropical
Artist: Juergen Winderl
The pd-based monitor-installation provides a constant stream of overlaying images and produces an energetic, hyper-hypnotic-tunnel-zone-zoom-effect. The images are taken from the internet and rhythmically vary in colour and size at random. The scaling/ moving-effects on the images of protecting masks and paintball-face guards correspond to their ambivalent function and character in general: "hide/ protect" on one side – "terrify/ pretend" on the other.
The stream is driven by a pd-patch and can be easily installed an any pc which runs pd-extended. The small monitor could be placed on a wall or (preferred) above a door like an emergency sign.
