I’ve spent a bit more time cleaning up the fluid blobs examples I made last week, this time limiting the Region of Interest and fiddling with the fluid interaction. Also newly included is a smarter way to interact with the blobs (in the code, i mean), pulling out more precise locational data. I’ll be looking to mine this one a bit more extensively than I did with the filtration fields installation – and since I seem to be getting better now at things I was attempting before – this should be a lot more fun.
In the mix still is some video over network action, as well as potentially a database record of the motion over time. I’d like to develop this as an interactive (from the visualisation point of view) interface where you could select a day, week or month and view the fluid ripples as they occur, like a fluid time-lapse of the actual motion from the courtyard. We’ll see.

Hey Jason, I really liked your integration of the msa fluid library with OpenCV, I was just wondering if it was possible to integrate multiple NominalX/Y points for the interaction rather than just 1 point? Also do you share code? I would love to take a look at it.
