About Artwork


Capturing movement and transcribing it into an art installation has always fascinated me. Morphing cloth and shading is the execution, empowering an interaction between a public and an art piece is a goal.

Optical Verlet brings a seamless interface, a connection to a technology to anyone willing to play with it. This unique piece is the result of mixing user inputs and camera feed driven by an optical flow algorithm and a general computing GPU cloth simulation on a 10.000 vertices mesh.
