INT2 EM1: Mirror

Learning Max is pretty fun! It seems like it will be easier than Arduino or Processing, since it is more visual-based. This first emulation is going to be mimicking Christian Moeller’s Electronic Mirror. Electronic Mirror fogs up as the viewer comes closer to it, and this effect is what we are aiming to achieve. With our computer camera as the sensor and our computer screens as the mirror, we are supposed to try to code this result in Max.

With the basic patch, we need to figure out how to do fullscreen, invert the video so it would reflect like a mirror, and to change it to black and white for more effective detection of the face.
