Media from the Half-Way Presentation | Dan | HMC | AardmanWe're very nearly there on deciding the final application of our half way experiments. We're currently edging (cautiously) towards producing two final products, although one will be very simple. The only thing holding us back from announcing our plans is signing off the use of particular Aardman properties.
While you wait, why not check out some of the footage from the presentation of the experiments.

Problems and Joys with Processing | Dan | HMC | AardmanProcessing's been out a lot recently…
Unfortunately we can't seem to get the Face Tracking C++ stuff into Processing, even though someone else has been kind enough to create a Processing Library for us. I think it's just instability with the latest version (as running simple Library commands throws up Memory errors), but we're just not sure.
Not too much worry though, cause Mike's Iris tracking in a whole different way.
So although Processing has been a little frustrating for our work, we have managed to use it successfully for someone else's project all together:
Both the lab and the project has been creating a great sense of camaraderie between the groups involved. And although we (Aardman and HMC) haven't been able to hang around the lab during the day, there's been a few evenings (quite sadly) hanging about, generally geekin', and getting sucked into other people's projects.
One of the most thought provoking has been Simon and Simon's work on swarming behavior. Inspired by this we couldn't help but put together some Processing sketches testing out some of those theories. Check out the results below (the 3dd one needs updating, excuse the poor encoding until it's done).
