MA | 3W19/20 Developing the 'Autopoiesis I' Max/MSP/Jitter Patch

I've been spending much of my time recently creating the Max/MSP/jitter patch for my 'Autopoiesis' installation. I've decided to call it 'Autopoiesis I' from now on since I expect this to be the first of many related and interconnected artworks.

'Autopoiesis I' uses my 'city people' footage and mixes it with a live recording of the person or people interacting with the artwork.

The Max/MSP/Jitter patch uses many of the best bits of my earlier 'digital art-systems' installations. In particular, I'm using the time-delayed video loop feature of 'We Are Not' alone to process the video of the viewer. This creates gentle 'video feedback' effect around the viewer.
