[Frameworks] suggestions for artists who work with medical found footage or especially patient-artists who use their own imaging

Hi Andrea et al,

I made this film from MRI scans.

_________________________________

To create it, I composited scans from MRI DICOM files into a 3D object 
that I then animated to create this exposition of inner space. I had a 
snowboard accident and after a somewhat difficult surgery and recovery, 
I wanted to makes something for myself out of the medical data.  
Originally, my plan was to make a 3D printed sculpture, but that turned 
into this film instead.  And to round out the film, I used some open 
source DICOM files in addition to those of my knee.

I'd be happy to tell you more, if that's your cuppa tea?


Talk to you later,
reed
