As our identities become deliberately constructed and broadcast commodities, our projected personae increasingly enmesh and define us. Cell acts as a virtual mirror, displaying a constructed fictional persona in place of our physical form. Composed from keyword tags mined from online profiles, these second selves stalk our movements through space, building in size and density over time. The resulting forms are alternate, technologically refracted manifestations of the body, revealing the digital aura while simultaneously allowing us escape from our own constructed identities. </td></table> </td> <td width=1 height=260> </td> <td width=19 height=260> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width=19 valign=top> <table width=19 border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0> <tr> <td height=5 width=19> </td> </tr> <tr> <td height=1 width=19 bgcolor=#FFFFFF> </td> </tr> </table> </td> <td width=1 valign=top> <table width=1 border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0> <tr> <td height=5 width=1> </td> </tr> <tr> <td height=240 width=1 bgcolor=#FFFFFF> </td> </tr> </table> </td> <td width=320 valign=top> <table width=320 border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><td width=10></td><td width=310> <font face=helvetica,verdana,arial size=2 color=FFFFFF> Cell uses Microsoft s Xbox Kinect to track visitors as they interact with the installation. It was built in openFrameworks, an open-source toolkit originally built to teach artists and designers creative coding. Microsoft have supported the project from the early stages, working with Brighton based company Matchbox Mobile and the openFrameworks community to build a new code library (or addon) specifically for cell that supports the Kinect For Windows SDK. This is an important development in the field of interactive art. Providing openFrameworks users easy access to the official Kinect For Windows SDK, places the technology directly into the hands of a large international community of interaction designers and new media artists. The library will be made available for free online, along with the source code for the installation. <br><br> <font face=helvetica,verdana,arial size=2 color=CCCCCC> Massive 'thank you's to Carmen Salas, Estela Oliva, Paul Foster, Will Coleman, Simon Hamilton Ritchie, Theo Watson, Kyle McDonald, Arturo Castro, Tim Williams, Alex Lovegrove, Nicholas Wood, Tom Hogan, Claire Holdsworth, Vincent Oliver and Iannish Posooa for their help in realising this project. </td></table> </td> <td width=1> </td> <td width=19> </td> </tr> </table> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width=440 height=248> <iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/30003800?title=0&amp;byline=0&amp;portrait=0" width="440" height="248" frameborder="0" webkitAllowFullScreen allowFullScreen></iframe> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width=440 height=248> <iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/30003854?title=0&amp;byline=0&amp;portrait=0" width="440" height="248" frameborder="0" webkitAllowFullScreen allowFullScreen></iframe> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width=440 height=248> <iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/30003878?title=0&amp;byline=0&amp;portrait=0" width="440" height="248" frameborder="0" webkitAllowFullScreen allowFullScreen></iframe> </td> </tr> </table> </td> </table> </center> <br> <center> <br> <font face=helvetica,verdana,arial size=1 color=CCCCCC>© Keiichi Matsuda and James Alliban 2011.
