A single sequence of improvised movement is translated into Vector Paths using the application Motion, with the original sequence manipulated to appear three times, in differing directions and speeds. The distinctive visual patterning was uncovered by accident while exploring a motion blur filter, with the resulting output showing the filter’s calculation process in action in what is effectively a diagnostic mode, not intended for visual display.
