Octopus

Abstract:
“Octopus” is a funky 3D performance video. Using motion-capture technology in a 3D program, a dancer’s motions were captured and reenacted by a puppet model. The backdrop is a generative code video inspired by the skin mechanism that allows cephalopods (octopuses, cuttlefish, etc.) to camouflage into their environment.
