Collagerator blends Art'O'Matically the boundaries of an art piece, a toy, and a multimediainstrument. You can make your own collages on the screen out of image material that is carefully chosen for you. There is also possibility to print the collages from the application. The work plays with high and low culture, combines media imagery with scientific mappings, asks who is the author, flirts with trendy design, wonders about the stereotypical roles of males and females in media, pays respect to, begs, steels and borrows from many sources - offering possibilities for over 25 million collages but still manages to stay coherent. See the imagebanks and explanations on a pdf document.
Collages can have two or three layers.
Choose images with the keyboard to the different layers. Each image-bank has its own charasteristics that are common to all its images. The third layer crops or frames the image or adds effects to it, distorting and colorizing it. New imagebanks can be added to the work easily later, even by other people. Audio adds a fourth layer to the collage.
