Outnumbered, a brief history of imposture [MaxMSP]

Outnumbered, a brief history of imposture, 2009, is an installation that generates a moving image using a found panoramic photograph from 1936. The installation is computer-controlled and generates an aleatoric narrative using an extensive database of people who, in some way, are associated with imposture.

The programming is done in Max/MSP. For the moving parts (spindle, rails) IGUS were used.
The installation is currently on display at the Manifesta8 biennial in Murcia, Spain.
