In Memory of Street Art I Subject description: Processing'd video + sound of disappearing graffiti / street art
I have been posting videos in the Visualizations-VJ forum here, probably the wrong place.
This is a new video that I have not submitted to an art exhibit yet. Those others have exhibited.

In Memory of Street Art I
Copyright Dale E. Parson, October 2026, 18 minutes & 5 seconds.
Appearing in this order:
Ontelaunee Bridge (soon to be demolished in late 2026),
Hay Creek Preserve (painted over in white in late 2025)
Centralia Graffiti Highway (covered in dirt in 2020)
Turn volume low then adjust your speakers.
Video: I reused my transitional filters coded in Processing, originally for Jenni Brandon's *Death Valley Symphony*, with some additions. Most use color extraction and stratification; two emphasize dynamic geometry. The "Ontelaunee Bridge" and "Hay Creek Preserve" photos are mine, while the "Centralia Graffiti Highway" images are publicly, freely available from before the site was covered in dirt in 2020.
Audio: I tried a new No-Input Mixer composition of mine, and also a recording of a drive to a hike with the car windows open. The former competes too much with the video, while the latter is dominated by wind noise, even with the car windows halfway up. I wound up using a recording from inside the car with the windows closed. It is very subdued and ambient, does not crowd the video, and conveys a quiet impression of driving on roads that no longer exist -- the Ontelaunee Bridge, old Route 82 (now a walking path) through the Hay Creek Preserve, and old Route 61 into Centralia.
