21.12.02 EG Serene, a software for reformalizing the time structure of videos.
'EG Serene' is the last software by Barbara Lattanzi, prolific author of programs which conceptually process video sequences. Her work is based on the movie 'Serene Velocity', by the artist Ernie Gehr, made in 1970, and algorithmically formalizes its time structure, which is afterwards applied on the desired video. For Lattanzi, it's a matter of making 'open-source' the very structure, in a sort of 'reverse engineering' of the schemes adopted by Gehr. In fact, what is made concrete is the possibility to explore one's own sequences in a temporal way, investigating the 'resonating frequencies' which reveal themselves when the time structure is reformalized. 'EG Serene' is available for free downloading for Mac and PC, as well as in pure copylefted source code, like her previous works AMG Strain and Surface Tension.
