Identity SA is an interactive and generative installation that combines a swarm-based simulation with real time camera based interaction. The agents' distributions are transformed into painterly images by employing a variety of different visualization techniques and styles. Camera based interaction is based on a simple motion detection algorithm that affects the agents' movements as well as their coloring. Identity SA acts as a visual and acoustic mirror, which distorts the continuity of the visitor's physical existence into ephemeral patterns and flowing motions. The new version 1.6 adds the capability to select musical tracks depending on the agents' movements. This system has been employed both as an experimental installation in an exhibition and as interactive video projection for a contemporary dance performance.
