Light Drawing Sound

light sound.jpg

Created with Michael Dory using Processing, this performance interface implements video tracking to trigger musical notes. Using a small flashlight, the user “draws” music, controlling both volume and midi note values that are mapped onto a square grid. Midi notes can be played using a virtual synthesizer such as Absynth, allowing for an infinite range of exciting sounds.
