Capturing movement and transcribing it into an art installation has always fascinated me. Optical Particles brings a seamless interface, a connection to a technology to anyone willing to play with it. Exploring, manipulating, noises, domains of definitions and particles with infinite possibilities of output. This unique piece is the result of mixing user inputs and camera feed driven by an optical flow algorithm and a general computing GPU simulation on a particle system composed of 65,536 cubes.
