this week is an attempt to move away from the literal transformation of the interior space to the exterior. here i am trying to create a form-z model of the spatial qualities of the interior with an animation of formation. i’d like to create the growth|scaling of the model from the ground to the space. as this is occuring, i want to have the camera angle of the animation to tumble to capture the interior of the model while there is a fade of the exterior video out and a blend of the interior video in.
the image above graphically represents the campaign trail of both major canidates for the 2008 presidential election. obama is represented by the blue pattern and mccain is represented by the red pattern. by using resources such as the washington post, i compiled the number of events held in each state of the continental united states. the set of conditions illustrated show the overlapping and interweaving of how many times each canidate visited the state contextually showing where a majority of their campaigning attention was given. this also represents where both canidates overlapped and/or divided their focus. the extremes of the conditions range from 178 events/visits to 0.
