Patchwork, by Frank Vollbrecht, Buettgen, 2002, Alienation of photos by patch elements The following pictures show different types of alienation with some photos from the picture catalog. Some photos were taken from Streamline
Worldwide Radio. |
Far Flossies
Photos from the harbour of Dusseldorf with "Flossies" at the building on the opposite side. |
After starting a picture form the catalog a sequence begins like
the one on the left hand side. Parts of the picture with the highest density
of similiar colors are filled with squares. Squares are painted in an inverse
color and are enlarged in some steps. At the end of this sequence the squares are opened and filled with a color form the underground. The whole sequence is permanently repeated. It will be modified when entering the picture with the mouse. |

Positioning the mouse over picture will lead to new square generations
depending on the color of the mouse position. The sequence is the same as
the starting sequence. This sequence is repeated as long as there is no mouse movement. Moving the mouse will lead to new color and square selection.

Mouse clicks will introduce a new sequence where one or more
tears are generated. The main tear will be patched with squares. The color of patches is synchronized with the picture background. The sequence ends by generating a heap at the central crossing of tears. |
