Maya Man’s unique contribution to Social Codes offers a new way to think about software and performance. Her deep explorations in art, dance, and code come together in “can I go where you go?” As a video clip of Maya dancing plays, her code analyzes the video frames one by one to generate a silhouette. This contour becomes an ever-changing shape the viewer can take charge of by drawing with it, or they can simply watch as the software performs itself.
