Ghost in the Crowd is an interactive installation exploring how bodies move, respond, and become collective within a technological feedback system. Inspired by call-and-response structures in underground music scenes, the work transforms audience movement into digital avatars, fragmented projections, data-stream visuals, and partially body-modulated sound. Multiple cameras capture participants’ gestures through a Python and MediaPipe-based motion-tracking system. The data is transmitted to Unity, where individual and collective digital bodies are generated, fragmented, and projected back into the gallery space. A VCV Rack sound system responds to higher-level body signals, creating a rhythmic environment that encourages bodily response. The work examines how movement becomes dialogue, how spectators become co-authors, and how the body is simultaneously expanded, captured, misread, and reorganized through machine perception.
