SO, about two weeks ago, I finally got a chance to play with Jitter. I was meant to do a video-text performance with some friends at the Pretoria Art Museum (went very well, actually), and so played with a bunch of Max and Jitter tutorials to get some nifty visuals.
Since then, though, I’ve been so hektik that I’ve not had another chance to get back to it, and I fear forgetting what little I have just learned.
Now, I’ve been asked to potentially build a commercial installation for my bud Templar, and it may involve using Jitter and Squished Eyeball and / or softVNS (Rokeby’s software version of his award winning art project, Very Nervous System). I’m so excited, anxious and annoyed – I want to start now! I want to learn! Yay, art! Yay getting paid to learn new technology for making art! AAAAARGH I don’t want to work!!!!
Blink. Blink. Blink. There’s no need to yell, nathaniel.
