A couple more experiments with physical distortion.
Experiments with magnets and CRT screens has been done a lot before, so would have to think of something to make it different. I think one of the biggest problems with this is to make it interactive in a way that is better than just moving a magnet across the screen with your hand.
With this alternative, the visuals on the screen could be for example sound reactive or just a looping video, while position of magnet could be controlled via. phone. Either that you draw and the magnet moves accordingly or that you can choose between different patterns. Now why place the monitor inside a case, I am not sure.
- For this i would need a CRT screen and a HDMI to VGI adapter to connect to my computer
- The magnet movement would be similar to a drawing robot
- Magnets for distortion
Now if this is something I have the skills to make, I am not sure. I think the major downside to this one is that Nam June Paik explored this concept a lot.
As for water distortion i'm not sure how to go forward with this. Essentially it would be a drip machine with a tank and a picture / screen underneath. Alternatively maybe a motor could be used to stir the water or somehow make the container vibrate (cymatics?).
