"Ink and C++ for Dinner" with Zach Lieberman

Zach Lieberman stunned the audience since the first performance and presentation of the “Drawn”. It’s fun and exciting to see Zach draw ink dots and shapes onto a paper that was filmed and projected onto the screen. Then, he started moving or bouncing them as if the shapes physically exist in the paper on the screen. His interactive sketchbook demonstrates a new way of animation.
Throughout the “Ink and C++ for Dinner”, Zach Lieberman showed numerous fascinating and innovative projects. A particular project, “RE:MARK & Hidden Worlds of Noise and Voice”, appeared spectacular to me. “RE:MARK & Hidden Worlds of Noise and Voice” is an installation of projected “noodles” that are formed with voices, and can be seen physically when users wear 3D glasses. The shapes of the noodles are formed depending on the sound and volume of the user’s voice. This project was taken further with a full-scale building installation in Berlin. The interactive “noodles” are projected swimming in and out of the building walls and tables, many of them attracted to cups and hands. It’s amazing to see the building “come to life” with swimming “noodles” even though Zach mentioned that by 4am, the passing drunks on their way home don’t seem to appreciate the artwork as much. ^^”
