INVESTIGATION: Thick mash-up video essay | Week 3

Media theorist Andreas Treske introduces the notion of “thickening of the video image” in his book “The Inner Life of Video Spheres” published by the Institute of Networked Cultures. He asserts that there is a 'thickening of the image' when we can place interactive objects on the timeline in the "Z axis" of the image (layers). Now it is possible to compose the frame with on-line live interactive streams of data such as: videos, wikipedia, google maps, texts, video and hyperlinks.

Visist `example that we have made as a promo for our showing at Bates Dance Festival 2013. We have placed 4 videos as a grid, inserted 20 pictures from a flickr photo set and added some text
