Flower Wave at Blacksmith Cycle
Interactive hand tracking installation
Flower Wave is an interactive hand-tracking art installation that blends real-time motion input with organic movement, allowing users to control what they see on screen. By integrating TouchDesigner, Unreal Engine, and MediaPipe, the installation transforms hand gestures into a surreal experience of flowers, fish and geometric shapes.
Using MediaPipe’s advanced hand-tracking technology, the installation detects users' hands and fingers with precision, translating their gestures into fluid interactions. TouchDesigner serves as the visual programming environment, orchestrating real-time data processing and seamlessly integrating the rendered image with Unreal Engine, where the visuals come to life.
Flower Wave was a part of the Momentum pop up gallery held at Blacksmith Cycle in February 2025.
