Hello ChucKists! I have been away from the list for a while and I am back now with a new project. Basically I am doing motion control of music for exercise and weight loss purposes, plus also for performance art. A friend has provided many samples of things like drums, robots, light sabres, thunder, etc. and I am also using the ChucK instruments in addition to the samples. The idea is that for a music programming geek like me, it will be a fun adventure to develop software and hardware combinations that permit me to dance my way to a better state of physical fitness. So far I have been working on gestures recognized from the (x,y) inputs of my Gyration Air Mouse, and soon I will get an iPod Touch for this purpose as well. Then I will have a sensor for each hand / arm, both of which interface with ChucK, plus the iPod Touch can be used in a standalone mode using the right apps. So far my best program is the flute and I have added frequency scale and time quantization at my friend's suggestion which really helps it sound good. I am also creating a music album for release on the EdP netlabel and video blogging my progress on electro-music.com, the home of the ChucK forum. If you have any questions or suggestions, I welcome them - and have a great day! Les
