I'm not sure if my prior message got through as it was mixed up with rejoining the group, but in that message i posted that I was working on an iPod Touch based motion control system.  I have since reconsidered and went for a WiiMote approach.  This was due to the fact that a friend told me that Osculator had "grown up" into a full-fledged windowed application which is a lot easier for me to use than the unix command line solution it was before (been there, not my thing anymore). 

So now I have four brand new WiiMotes, a copy of Osculator, and a three year old Mac mini with ChucK miniAudicle on it.  I have set up Osculator to send MIDI CC messages for two of the WiiMotes including raw accels and all buttons but not including the IR sensor (yet).  Also I have written some programs, the main resulting effort of which is a flute/drum program with good sound and acceptable control setup. 

Next I will work on improving the control gestures of the flute/drum program and possibly replacing the drums with a saxophone.  Also I need to work out some kind of physical arrangement for holding the ankle or foot mounted WiiMotes.  I am also updating the video blog and text record of the progress and recording songs for an album. 

Your suggestions and comments are very welcome, thanks in advance for your time!
