Thesis final project (short exploration)
Mimesis
on my own
What happen when you connote a pixel with a simple behaviour?
Both plays and human-computer activities are mimetic in
nature; that is they exhibit the characteristics of artistic
representation. A mimesis is a made thing not an accidental
or a arbitrary one...
Brenda Laurel, Computer as a Theatre, p.45
Mimesis project is a pure exploration of the communicative
potential of motion in representation.
These short animations or interactive pieces, made with Proce55ing,
have the aim to test people recognition of existing natural
behaviours, such as social or animal ones, or behaviours that
are metaphors for pure abstract concept as emotions.
Part of this row material will be used for the definition
of possible characters through the mean of motion only.
