The Lite-Write [openFrameworks]

Few days ago Alex Beim posted a link to a video the team at Tangible Interaction created about how to make a quasi omnidirectional light marker for slow shutter photography. Where we didn’t know what this for was then, Alex earlier sent us a direct message on Twitter:

Time to get creative this holiday! http://www.lite-write.com is our gift to you from @tangibleint and @companypolicy

The Lite-Write is a simple openFrameworks application for your Mac or PC that creates the same long exposure effect of light writing with a camera. Using your quasi omnidirectional light marker (or any other light emitting objects such as your iPhone) you can draw as if you were using long exposure camera. Captures are saved in the folder “Captures” when you hit the Spacebar or “S” Key. See the growing collection of images now available on Flickr.

See lichtfaktor for inspiration.
