Gray Zone is a video effect that makes objects disappear when they are not moving. Moving objects are visible in real-time and reappear as ghosts after a configurable time span.

Gray Zone was showcased at the student art exhibition “Rundgang” at the Berlin Weißensee Art Academy in July 2015 – presented as a time machine (middle frame) and as a possibility for advertising (side frames).

We tested various use cases, such as for advertising, recognition of micro gestures, surveillance, games, and the potential for artistic expressions.
