OverviewCreative Developer for Interactive Art Installation Based on Digitized Historical Library Materials. This role focuses on developing an immersive, multisensory experience that connects thousands of digitized pages from a historically significant library with real-time generative visuals. The installation will allow visitors to explore the library’s texts and generate personalized visualizations that combine textual content with generative graphics responding to user-selected content.The project aims to reimagine the library’s material in a contemporary context, offering a multisensory experience where technology and art intertwine. Visualizations will be generated using coding techniques and algorithms, acting as a bridge between the past and present.Job ResponsibilitiesDevelop and program an advanced search interface using technologies like Elasticsearch or Solr to enable exploration of digitized library content.Create and design real-time generative visualizations that combine text and dynamic graphics using tools such as p5.js, Three.js, TouchDesigner, and related technologies.Implement visual techniques like fractals and Perlin Noise to produce unique, interactive images based on user-selected content.Integrate real-time interaction technologies (touchscreens or motion sensors) so users can control and manipulate visualizations.Collaborate with designers and developers to create a multisensory immersive experience combining graphics, sound, and lighting effects.Ensure seamless integration and flow of the experience across artistic and technical aspects.RequirementsExperience developing interactive installations or projects based on generative art.Proficiency with frameworks and tools such as p5.js, Three.js, and TouchDesigner (or similar).Experience with search engines like Elasticsearch or Solr for handling large volumes of textual data.Knowledge of creative programming techniques for generating images using algorithms such as fractals or Perlin Noise.Ability to create interactive interfaces using motion sensors, touchscreens, and other real-time interaction technologies.Ability to integrate multisensory elements (sound and lighting) into interactive experiences.Strong teamwork skills with attention to detail and artistic quality.BenefitsOpportunity to work on an innovative project that blends art, technology, and cultural legacy.Creative and collaborative work environment with access to cutting-edge technology and resources.Competitive compensation based on experience and skills.How to ApplyIf you are passionate about generative art and interactive experiences and can transform historical material into a digital immersive environment, send your portfolio and updated CV to the email below with the subject "Creative Developer for Interactive Art Installation".Mail: ana.gil@fao.orgAnaAvailable from Sunday, October 6, 2024
