A chance to see your work on the London Underground
The V&A has commissioned Karsten Schmidt to design a digital
identity for the Decode exhibition using open source code. We are giving
you the opportunity to recode Karsten's work and create your own
original artwork. If we love your work it could even become the new
Decode identity.
You can download and interact directly with the source code, but you
do not need to be an expert coder, as Karsten has also designed a
graphical user interface. For full instructions and downloads go to the
Decode Google code page which
also has a detailed user guide written by Karsten.
Once you're satisfied with your recoded artwork, send it to us for
inclusion in our digital gallery. Send me an email (The V&A reserves the right
not to display any works deemed unsuitable). If you prefer you could
save your artwork as a video or still image and upload it onto Vimeo or
flickr, tagging it decode09. This will allow it to feed through into our
Decode Live page.
A number of the recoded works submitted to us will be chosen by the
V&A and CBS to appear on London Underground digital screens to
promote the exhibition. Each work used in this way will appear fully
credited with the name of its artist.
The Artist shall mean the person who submits the recoded work.
Copyright will remain at all times vested with artist.
The Artist will grant to the V&A the non-exclusive royalty free
right to display the final edited artwork on the CBS London Underground
Screens for the period 18 January 2010?11 April 2010

A reverse re-strukturing of the original aav
re-code re-remix submission for the V&A decode logo exhibition.
Originally made using karsten schmidts processing patch, screen grabbed
and av reactivly remixed in resolume avenue then treated, graded and
comp'd in after effects and finalcut pro.
The idea was to see what the animation would look
like as a sketch. There are many ways to do this and I settled with the
method used by the classic NPR Quake
(cs.wisc.edu/graphics/Gallery/NPRQuake/). Some duplicate VBOs, a few new
textures and 2 shaders later, here is the result
Recode Decode winner. On CBS London Underground
screens 03-26 Feb 2010.
A slightly modified version of my first go at this, with the pacing
changed slightly, and the camera movement altered.
Here is a compilation created using the digital
identity for the Decode exhibition. It concentrates on the strange
landscapes created inside the words.
