Work at SCIM with Jody Sperling

Renowned dance artist and Loïe Fuller expert Jody Sperling is visiting this week, teaching workshops and helping with the “Master Dancer” VR app development. We have been working on real-time control of avatars in Unreal Engine, mocap for “AI Loïe, and kicking the tires on the real-time AI video generator programmed by Jake Metz at the SCIM lab in the UIUC Engineering Library. Exciting work!
