“VisP-Engine” - short for “Visual Poetry Engine” - is a digital semi-brain programmed in TouchDesigner and C++ for Arduino.
While the name refers to the ever lasting approximation to the indescribable through the language of imagery, it also links to the disembodied mythical figure of the same name, Wisp or will-o'-the-wisp, known from English folklore and video games. VisP uses a broad array of sensors, monitoring and analyzing its environment and interactions with viewers to simulate feelings, which it then communicates via an ever changing generative collage of imagery taken from the archive of the collective. While VisP itself is capable to remember past states and thus gets influenced in its mood, viewers can feed their own images into the archive to enhance its expressiveness and grow the memory of the system.
