Staring Contest
Single-Channel Video (Computer-Generated Animation)
2:46 June 2024
Blender. Premiere Pro. DitherIt!. Max MSP.
Staring Contest is an experimental computer-generated video piece involving techniques of 3D modeling, cloth simulation, dithering, and sound generated from a generative synth developed in Max MSP.
The theme presented in the video reflects the concept of discomfort within one’s own skin. Pretending to be someone you are not to feel accepted affects a human’s self-confidence. Eventually, this leads to a loss of identity. Therefore, Staring Contest asks the viewer to observe a digitized organism through different phases of revealed identities.
