CompilingMovies

CONCEPT: to develop a series of short movies (linear sniplets, slide shows, integrated hyperimages...) from footage/material of systemic camera recordings, that would capture big collection of images (video frames) and index them for types of information (time stamp, content, image analasys, user made metadata...)

INSPIRATION: development of the concept for this kind of project for observing public space has been inspired by different discussions and issues raised among activists and artists who are interested in working on and about mediating public space:

PUBlicIMAGinING

project initiated by Željko Blaće as speculative design research at Jan van Eyck Academie in Maastricht, on the topic of visual mediation and civic engagement with urban space. Its aims are set: to articulate proactive discourse in theoretical research and examine and test strategies of engagemnet with public in event series. Its production aspect is set in speculative design of open, participatory and distributed media sysyem prototyps that operate as tools for systemic visual observation of urban spaces and utilizing their visual outputs...

Project aims to establish a discourse of a proactive engagement through:
a) designing a prototype media system for the collective production of observation images of urban public spaces, producing visual material that would support different perception modes focusing on suble environmental changes, over a longer periods of time;
b) promoting praoctive discourse and engaging public with articulation of public space (utilizing: posters, public actions, serveys, installations...) and desimanating it in academic environment (using publications, events and conducting workshops)
Production aspects of the project are set to experiment with SlowCAM setups, development of a website that would document/support project development and tools as CompilingMovies as integrated visual media...more on PUBlicIMAGinING!
