It's the West Wave Dance Festival in San Francisco. I'm already
applying once as a choreographer (of regular dances, which is to say
live human beings). But another part of the festival is a Digital Dance
Film Festival. So I'm entering a film of algorithmically controlled
virtual dancers. The geos that I mentioned are the various body parts
of the "dancers". Since the dancers are colorless (all white) and the
only colors are generated by lighting effects, it doesn't matter that
the colors aren't correct, since it's supposed to be very abstract anyway.
However, now that you mention it, I see that red comes out as its
opposite, cyan; green as its opposite, magenta; but blue strangely
remains blue. And it *does* have an effect on the film, since it pulls
it too much to the blue end, and therefore it isn't as colorful as it
should be. And no, I don't know how to convert it.
I'll start a new thread.
