Introduction
Consumer depth cameras and 6DoF controllers, combined, can unlock a new approach to creating frame-by-frame animation, which my research develops as the Lightning Artist Toolkit (Latk)—a complete pipeline for hand-drawn volumetric animation, as far as I know the only open-source example of its kind. My goal with this project is to make creation in 3D as expressive and intuitive as creation in 2D, retaining the human gesture from its origins in hand-drawn animation on paper.

We propose a set of methods for freely integrating live-action volumetric video with hand-drawn volumetric animation, which our research develops as the Lightning Artist Toolkit (Latk)---a complete pipeline for hand-drawn volumetric animation, as far as we know the only open-source example of its kind. Our goal with this project is to make creation...
Article
In a nearly lost 1934 manuscript, Joseph Schillinger mathematically described a dance notation that mapped human form into Cartesian space. Although this notation was merely a curiosity when it was first proposed, we can now see that it presaged a time when transcoding information and applying procedural rules to create works of art would become co...
Article
The authors discuss improvisation in music and accompanying real-time graphics, providing historical examples and a discussion of their performance group, In Strange Paradox.
