Form Constant is a collaboration between dancer/choreographer Hope Goldman and her partner, visual artist/programmer Andrew Moffat. It was performed live in March 2010 in the Studio Dance 1 Concert at the Krannert Center the Performing Arts as Goldman's Master's thesis show.
To perform the real-time tracking and effects, the piece uses infrared lighting and a custom-modded, $40 webcam along with custom software running on the GPU.
The choreography was influenced by the ideas of fluid dynamics and the energetic quality of the imagery.
Music by Ben Frost.

Her choreography and video work has been presented throughout the Midwest as well as several areas along the East coast at venus including The Tank and Chez Bushwick in New York.
