A New Movie
This
application uses mouse movements to create a new edit of Bruce Conner’s
“A Movie”(1958). "A New Movie" maps each x/y position
of the users screen and assigns each position of the screen to an edit
point of "A Movie". The application watches and records the
users mouse movement over a chosen period of time. When enough data
has been collected the application will re-edit the original version
of ”A Movie”. The user can then view the re-edited version,
which keeps the original soundtrack in place but rearranges the visual
track according to the users daily mouse movements.
