Transkameleon
of Vform
The Transcam is a visual synthesizer of
syncronous images generated by a realtime sound input. It was
developed for the creation of visual effects for use in concert,
which transform via a complex oscilloscope-like color
multichannel filter set, the sound frequencies in lines colored
with variable forms. The lines are then reproduced in more
complex images by a set of mirrors.
Two Panasonic WJMX-50 video mixers supplement the signal
treatment to bring the images created, to a multitude of effects
which can be projected for public display and recorded. To
simplify the task of the operator, 500 different visual effects
are contained in memory banks, to be recalled instantaneously to
compose original creations.
