Chroma Culture is a video work that is literally grown. The process for growth combines optical video feedback, digital video processing and projection mapping to create an evolving organic phenomena that recalls the behavior of micro-organisms in a petri dish. Three discrete chromatic feedback systems (Red, Green, Blue) exist in the same space, fighting for territory. The work is seeded using coloured laser pens, encouraging each chromatic ‘culture’ to grow steadily. As each colour expands, it bumps up against another. This creates a constant flux as individual colour growth is amplified by the feedback system, yet inhibited by the other colours sharing the space. Winner of the A-Life 2020 Inspired Art Award, at the A-Life artificial Life conference in Montreal, 2020. This video is a recording of the core work, which can be adapted to a live / interactive installation, dependent on certain presentation conditions.
