2 New Glocal Toolkits Released!

Writing by Jer on Friday, 27 of June , 2008 at 3:38 pm


The images above, and the images in the site header were all created by Glocal participants using pre-release versions of our first two toolkits. We are happy to announce that these toolkits are now available for public download from our Toolkits Page.

First up is the Motion Sequence Tool, a simple software program for converting motion into a still image sequence via a web cam. As you can see from our Flickr Pool, there is a huge variety of images that can be created with this tool.

Next is the Multiple Exposure Tool, which layers captured photos to create photographic images via a web cam or connected video cam. You can store up to 25 photo layers, and combine them in any number of different ways.

Both toolkits are compatible with Mac, Windows, and Linux platforms and require a webcam to run properly.

Just a quick note, I saw your software being demonstrated at Major Hill Park in Ottawa on Canada Day and must say that it looks quite interesting and that I will be downloading a copy to try out and have some fun with. Thank you!

About The Glocal Project

Glocal (global + local) is an immense, collaborative and multifaceted digital art project that examines the making, sharing and exhibiting of images in the 21st century. Working out of the Surrey Art Gallery’s TechLab, the artists behind Glocal pose questions about the nature of photography at this point in our history: What is a photograph? What is a camera? What is a photographer?
