Graphical Marionette
This project was a computer model of an animated human body. The creators named this animation "scripting by enactment." Two cameras tracked and recorded the location of LEDs attached to joints
of the user being captured. Using this information, the system computer generated an animation of a stick
figure replicating the exact motion of the user.
Foreshadowing:
