http://www.looop-r.net
Looop-R is the second iteration of a real-time video performance tool based in the exploration of low-tech, used technology and human engineering research.
As in its smaller and older brother (loop-r)hardware and software blend themselves into a new genre providing free control of video-loops in an expressive hybrid tool.
With this tool its author is giving a shout to industry, using existing and mistreated technology in innovative ways, combining concepts and interfaces: merging segregated interfaces (GUI and physical devices) into one.
