House Party! The 3-D Light Show You Can Control With an iPad or Wii | Wired Design | Wired.com

Mon, 07/23/2012 - 14:58 -- rprice

Floating — a new album by Danish electronic artist Rumpistol / Red Baron — design studio Futura Epsis 1 made something that was a bit of both.

Floating’s live show features a hypnotic 3-D display, controlled by an iPad app, that you can download for your home. The idea is that the show can be projected anywhere — from large arenas to living rooms. “We came up with the idea of a realtime 3-D sound-visualization as an installation for concerts and live-events as well as interactive installation for clubs,” says Andreas Rothaug, Head of Development Futura Epsis 1.

Beautiful Art, Created With Code

Thu, 07/05/2012 - 21:38 -- rprice

In labs people have been experimenting with computer vision for a long time, like being able to track a body. We can go back almost 20 years and find examples of that at the MIT video lab, designing interfaces that track someone's arm or hand. It's really only with the release of the Sony iToy where that became something that was more public. And now with the Kinect, it's become massively public. So that's an example of the technology changing.

Piano Lightbox » minor9th.com

Thu, 07/05/2012 - 15:28 -- rprice

I’d like to make a piano which spews light, cleverly, depending on what keys are pressed. It should be fairly seamless and not overt, so the workings need to hide inside, but the basic premise is:

Someone plays the keys -> Some magic processing happens -> The music is interpreted, tastefully, in light form and slips out from above the keybed, over the top of the piano and beyond.

GNU Octave

Sun, 04/29/2012 - 23:27 -- rprice

a high-level interpreted language, primarily intended for numerical computations. It provides capabilities for the numerical solution of linear and nonlinear problems, and for performing other numerical experiments. It also provides extensive graphics capabilities for data visualization and manipulation. Octave is normally used through its interactive command line interface, but it can also be used to write non-interactive programs. The Octave language is quite similar to Matlab so that most programs are easily portable.

Timeline | drupal.org

Thu, 12/29/2011 - 05:58 -- rprice

Timeline is a DHTML-based AJAXy widget for visualizing temporal information.

This Drupal module is an integration for a JavaScript timeline widget developed by the SIMILE project.
It works in a similar way as Google Maps but for time-based events. The SIMILE Timeline (and Ajax) libraries can be used from the SIMILE server or can be downloaded and installed into your (local) Drupal installation.
