Process
For my final project, I decided to combine the last couple of projects that we had to play around with body pixelation and sound recognition as I thought that would be a good way to wrap up the three weeks together. I wasn't totally sure what I wanted to do, but I connected Moon's basic speech recognition code and the code for body pixelation. I wanted to somehow create a sketch where the user would say one of the approved words with the ml5 speech recognition and it would somehow alter the pixelation.
I first started playing with how to break the sketch as much as possible while still having it work. I added different points to the shapes to come up with different pixelization effects and see different ways the pixels would show on the screen.
Here's another version that I played around with.
I then had a happy accident moment. I was playing with adding different colored filters to the design and created this laggy, ghostly feel to my design because of the transparent background I added, there was a delay in the pixel drawing my new image when I moved.
I decided that was the effect I wanted to continue playing with. I adjusted the filters so I had one of every color. I then added the code so different filters would appear when a number between 1 and 7 was called out.
