Change of plans

So I've decided to change my plans around for this project. It still involves mirrors but I have some new ideas of how to work with them. I've come up with two possibilities for this main idea; the first one involves using a webcam (maybe two) to capture the viewer, which gets sent through isadora and to the mini projector which projects itself onto a piece of board with shattered bits of mirror deliberately arranged on it to finally reflect and project into an empty wooden frame on the wall. And to make the piece interactive I would use one of the wireless controllers to control filters in isadora.

The other idea, which is turning out to be the more appealing one to me, is to use the same set up, but instead of relying on webcam feeds for content I would kill two birds with one stone and incorporate my final video piece for Jesse's class, having the 3-4 minute piece projected onto the broken mirror to create an even more abstracted presentation of an already abstract video piece. My main influence for the video piece is Takeshi Murata who works with data moshing and heavy manipulation of old school found footage:

I'm thinking about using footage from the movie "The fly" to capture some really bizzare/creepy horror footage and to make it even creepier and weirder. I also plan on making my own audio for the piece using heavily manipulated clips from the footage and my own sort of ambient background music. Here are some quick and dirty sketches of the set up:
