Interactive Design in C++ with OpenFrameworks

Project Description: I am looking to hire a freelance C++ developer with experience in OpenFrameworks to create an interactive digital art installation. The project's main goal is to use algorithmic generation to produce captivating, ever-evolving tunnel-like visual patterns in real-time. Here are the details you need to know: Project Objective: Create an interactive art installation that combines generative art and viewer participation. Rooted in the history of algorithmic visual creations. Context: Digital media art with elements from graphic design and computational aesthetics. Output: The system will generate a series of high-contrast, dynamic images. These images will be displayed on a large screen or projected in a dark space for a visually immersive experience. The visuals will consist of generative 3D tunnel effects with twisting and turning lines, creating depth and movement. Input: Real-time user interaction using motion sensors. Participants can influence the generative patterns through their movements. The goal is to create an intuitive and captivating experience that encourages users to explore the relationship between their actions and the evolving artwork. Starting Point: Begin with openFrameworks 3D and noise examples. Utilize Perlin noise for generating coherent values for line directions. Incorporate addons like ofxGui for interactive controls and ofxPostProcessing for visual effects. Consider exploring advanced 3D transformations and shader programming for more complex visuals. Challenges: Optimizing the system for real-time interaction without performance issues. Ensuring the installation caters to users with varying levels of tech familiarity. Learning advanced graphics programming to achieve the desired visual complexity. Specific Help: Seeking feedback on making user interaction intuitive and engaging. Insights into efficient real-time rendering techniques. Advice from peers with experience in interactive installations. Guidance on creating a compelling user experience in a gallery setting. Please provide an estimate for the project timeline and budget when submitting your proposal. Your expertise in C++, OpenFrameworks, and digital art installations will play a significant role in bringing this creative and immersive project to life. (find inspiration in appendix)
