Reflections: Painting With Pixels

"Reflections: Painting With Pixels" is an interactive art installation that involves a viewer in pixel painting of his or her image. The process of pixel painting is stretched in time and fragmental, allowing the viewer to contemplate on the generated image. It captures the viewer in segments of time and displays multiple instances of his or her image. The generated image continuously reinvents itself according to the viewer's position and movement. The viewer is captured via live video feed from a web cam.
