Dance Avatar reimagines embodied interaction through a sophisticated computer vision system that transforms physical movement into real-time digital expression. The installation investigates the relationship between corporeal presence and digital representation, utilizing advanced machine learning algorithms to create a seamless bridge between human motion and computational aesthetics. This work explores how real-time motion capture can create new paradigms for personal expression and digital embodiment.
The installation integrates Azure Kinect sensors with custom TouchDesigner software to achieve high-precision body tracking, generating responsive digital avatars that mirror participants' movements in real-time. This setup explores the intersection of physical performance and digital representation, contributing to research in embodied computing and interactive art by examining how digital mirrors can enhance human expression.
