What we achieved:

Max MSP

Extracting coordinates from Synapse and linked it to Max MSP Changing from mouse control to Kinect coordinates Particles initially tracked only on X and Y axis of window, but debugged to follow joint coordinates to move freely around the screen Fine tune particles to follow joints more smoothly All joints initially mapped to the left hand, leaving particles only connected to one Read more →

WEEK 2 MILESTONES 4/4

What we achieved: We sourced around for patches related to particles and camera blob tracking. Of the two particle patches we found, the flow and behaviour of one was smoother than the other. However, we had some problems understanding the patch because it had many foreign objects and attributes involved. (jit.gl, mesh, render, jit.gen, jit.expr)

We used Read more →

Memories of sound is an interactive sound installation that explores the relevance of sound in triggering human memories and experiences. We hope to understand and explore the connection that humans have with sound.
