Structure Synth is an application for creating 3D structures from a set of user specified rules.
So basically it is a tool to create complex, 3-dimensional structures out of some liens of code. The Code looks like this:
1 * { rz 90 x 10 y 12 s 9.8 } 5 * { ry 1 } 50 * { ry 10 rx 1 z 0.8 } 1 * { s 0.01 1 10 } box
{ x 30 y 30 z 0 s 900 900 1 h 90 } box
At the first look it seems quite complicated but the basic instruction set is very simple. Below are some images, the code above was used to create the first image.
Dance and create in rAys V2.0! With an array of 64 lasers the audience can generate audio and visuals, where every movement (or, better: every intersection of a vertical laser beam with your body) directly corresponds to a sound or graphic. Somehow I can’t really see the synaesthetics and the tight interaction in the video documentation all the time, but I believe it’s a great experience and a cool idea.
