Actionscript Video Color Sampler Experiment

April 18th, 2007

A while back, I came across an art project that put a translucent grid over public LCD monitors in New York. I was very attracted to the constantly changing abstract grid of colors - the whole idea was very clever and well-executed. Soon afterward, I thought it would be a fun experiment (albeit much less cool) to do the same thing in Flash with video. A few hours later, I had made a pretty cool system for sampling and averaging colors within a specified area. The final code was quite flexible - allowing for some very interesting representations. Below is the most simple form - I will be tidying up the code, converting it to AS3 and do a much more thorough writeup on it. Still, I thought it would be fun to show off the preliminary version.

The SWF below has a video to the left and its sampled grid to the right. Just press the play button and enjoy.
