Duologue 'Memex' by Marshmallow Laser Feast
David Knight - 9th Sept 2014
Visual innovators Marshmallow Laser Feast are featured in the Barbican's current Digital Revolutions exhibition, and their new work - for Duologue's track Memex – is also breaking through the boundaries of the way imagery is captured.
It's a study of mortality that explores photogrammetry techniques, filmed with FBFX’s 94-camera high resolution scanning rig – which allows capture of 360º 3D scans in 1/13,000th of a second, with 16k photorealistic textures – to create a full body scan of model Beryl Nesbitt - a woman in her later years.
The scans then went to Marshmallow Laser Feast’s VFX collaborators Analog, who also captured the sunset as a spherical panoramic HDR photo. These two photographic processes were combined in 3D software to illuminate the scanned body, to reveal fascinating perspectives on the human form.
