Spaces In Between

Projection Snippet,

Just a little bit of how it looked and the interaction with the button.

The video is pixelated and I could not figure it out why....

Final Version

This is the final code and video with the different colours.

Code is below:

import processing.video.*;

Movie movie; int val = 0;

void setup() {  size(1000, 800);  background(0);  // Load and play the video in a loop  movie = new Movie(this, "OctagonL.mp4");  noCursor(); }

void movieEvent(Movie m) {  m.read(); }

void draw() {  switch(val){

   case 0:    background(0);    break;

   case 1:    movie.loop();    image(movie,0,0);    tint(255,69,0);    break;

   case 2:    movie.loop();    image(movie,0,0);    tint(255,215,0);    break;

   case 3:    movie.loop();    image(movie,0,0);    tint(102,205,170);    break;

   case 4:    movie.loop();    image(movie,0,0);    tint(204,229,255);    break;

   case 5:    movie.loop();    image(movie,0,0);    tint(172,136,235);    break;  } }

void keyPressed(){ if (key == ' '){ val = val +1; //if key gets pressed it will add the value to it if(val>5) { // if it goes above 3 it goes back to zero val = 0; } } println(val);

FIRST final version

This was my first final version and what I took with me to be projected.

I had 5 different button and was really happy with the colour and contrast.

Unfortunately, it did not work whit the projector. The colours got washed out, the lack of boundaries in the footage got lost and because the room was so light so did the graphics. Furthermore, I had 5 different buttons and that was not my final goal - I wanted to have the button just to show the colours changing and not as an interaction - the most important interaction is between us and the weather and the fact that we CAN’T control it.

Colours

My first project was all about warm and cool colours - representing the weather and how expose we are to it.

New Movie

In this second trial I chose a movie that would represent the fluid movement I imagined. I believe it looks very mesmerizing, specially the contrast and dark background.

Colours are still very basic and there are two different buttons doing the flipping action.

Tint and Colours

Because my first project was all about movement and colour I started by applying tint to my first trial code. I figured using this tool from Processing would be less complicated then trying animation from zero.

Movie Task

Now working with the space and up keys.

Boolean Variables

Switching between images

Trying to understand a little bit more how to switch between images without overriding them. 

Sound Task

Another trial

Added first sound.

Sounds

Possible Submission

This is it. I probably made everything super complicated and don't really understand half of it...HELP!

Still can't use the SPACE bar as a key because it was not “mixing” with the other special keyboard keys (UP, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT) and couldn't figure it out why.
