An movement based algorithm exploring changing perspectives.
These videos certainly were interesting, if not slightly dizzying. Was the 90 degree turn for the standing people done in a fixed order (clockwise, counterclockwise), or at the person's choice? Also did each person who was changing levels do so at uneven heights or degrees of change, making the outcome different based on who was participating? Were the camera angles supposed to be pointed downward or straight across, as they kept changing and I couldn't tell. These would be interesting to think about when discussing the final entropy of your project.
Thanks for the input! Each person was not given a set direction to turn in, they chose one direction in the beginning and stuck with it (personal choice- more randomness). Yes, definitely each switch increasing the entropy. And there were no instructions whether to point the camera straight or not, so this was definitely personal choice and led to more randomness and entropy.
Taking into account all of these factors in producing this generative and emergent art make it so that no matter how many times it were to be reproduced, the outcome and perspectives would be slightly changed.
Your algorithm is really unique and interesting! I can definitely see how the different spaces result in very different outcomes. I have a few questions: how were the random starting positions chosen, how did you choose who was in each group, and how did you decide how many people are in each group? All in all, good job!
