Final Project Thoughts

For my final project, I am very interested in using Isadora to explore the relation between sound and video. So far in class we have seen how powerful of a tool Isadora is and how it is basically Photoshop for real-time video, but I have noticed that it also has some very robust audio editing tools as well. I know that the possibilities are nearly endless, which almost makes deciding what exactly I am going to do a little difficult, but here are some of the ideas that I have as of now:

-A video sensor with a projection in the Fusion lab that only relays the video to the projector when there a certain audio decibel is reach. Example, walking into the room quietly would produce no projection of your image on the screen, yet with a raised level of audio, the projection would begin, perhaps even in proportion to the level of sound.

-Another idea is flipping the previous idea so that sound actually kills the audio feed, so that a noisy room will produce no video reproduction.

I need to spend the next week or so figuring out how some of the tools in Isadora can be used effectively when combined with each other, and if I can bring my ideas, or at least some version of it, to life.
