Tonight we are doing our first run of the World Series of ‘Tubing (registered domain, but as of yet, not set up!) at the Eyebeam Benefit. If you are in New York, you should come, but actually I’d recommend the Mixer party on Saturday over tonight’s event.
Anyway, I decided late yesterday that I wanted to have Yooouuutuuube style transitions between rounds and matches as a sort of homage to that wonderful thing, so I hacked together a quick version of the effect for use in the World Series of ‘Tubing software. While working on it, I was using the webcam rather than a video file and it turns out that its really fun to play with live. If you have an OS X computer with a webcam, you can try it for yourself.
It’s called “muybridgey” because that’s what I typed for the project named as I began coding this at 11pm last night at the end of a very long day in crunch mode.
