A Perfect Combination of Art and Technology – Viewing Life with the Aid of a Machine

By Parul Gupta July 19, 2016

Caitlin Robinson marks her, shotgun microphone in hand, along with the computer that is fastened to her partner with the use of a USB cable. Their subject, Telma, stays frozen in her living room. When Robinson and Schneider completed, they will have a miniature, 3-D, and egg like a replica of Telma inside her house, a sole moment in the life of a resident of East Village, who can be captured in the grip of your hand.
 
 
“When you did not have distinct rooms, then the one single room that you have to place everything in this space, then it becomes crucial to the way you are as a people,” says Robinson. “So he intended to capture that individual’s personalities as they are mirrored on the walls.”
 
Robinson and Schneider set out hoping to paper a time in the city of New York in which large numbers of people are selecting to stay alone. Capsule Portraits instigate as a documentary project at the Interactive Telecommunications Program at the New York’s Tisch School of the Arts. But the project swiftly introduced when the technology itself formulated as a core component of the creation procedure.
 
It all began as a self-centred project stimulated a fascinating communication between the two artists and their recurrently glitch and software – an interaction that influences their art in lovely and impressive ways.
 
According to Robinson, she has considered technology as collaboration on the team. “It is very much interesting,” she says, “to see the entire world not through my eyes, but through the eyes of a gadget.”
 
Robinson and Schneider had originally pondered that the scans would be a real-time environment, static worlds experienced with Google Cardboard or an equally VR platform. But, they swiftly realized that the comprehensive 3-D meshes crafted by the scans were too information-heavy to be created by most current mobile gadgets. So as research, they introduced 3-D printing as an attempt, incorporating the ‘watertight’ operation of their Skanect 3-Dimensional software.
 
Watertight utilizes an algorithm that employs the internal structure of the flat to identify at the exterior shape so the scan can be encompassed into a printed and in an object.
 
Other similar accidents remain to inspire future directions for their labour. Schneider says that the Kinect 1 scanner she utilized has problems with reflective surfaces, for example, preparing the software to make distinct guesses about reflections and what stays on the other side. “It is exciting to witness the sensor’s interpretation of what may be another reality or another incidence of reality,” says Schneider.
