Research, Expression Group, 1997
Project Description:
I constructed a podium to be used as musical instrument.
I created a surface onto which users could place various found objects.
The identity, position and orientation of the objects, as sensed by a
video camera, changed the parameters of a physical model in the VL1 MIDI synthesizer. The notes played by the synth were determined
by another musical instrument.
Technical Notes:
I used Macromedia Director/Lingo with Danny Rozin's Video XTRA to track the
objects. I used HyperMidi to communicate with the MIDI synthesizer.
