W<\/strong>e have a number of exciting updates to share; We’ve begun on site installation of our new Fort Collins experience, our CEO Ethan Bach and CSO Paul Elsberg have submitted two exciting topics for this year’s Denver Startup Week and Elsberg will be leading an ongoing Hackster.IO workshop. Let’s go into detail on each.<\/span><\/p>\n

W<\/strong>e left off last in excited conceptualization of how this project would take place. Since then the test version of our Fort Collins installation has taken wings; We’re now ready to reveal the beta version of our newest creation: An interactive audio\/visual exhibit which allows visitors to create music simply by walking into the space.<\/span><\/p>\n

W<\/strong>e achieve this with 4 Epson projectors, 6 Behringer speakers and 2 Kinect sensors mounted to the ceiling, 1 SkyLake 6700 Quad Core<\/span>\u00a0and 1 Lenovo ThinkCenter M715Q AMD Pro\u00a0<\/span>computer. The audio\/visual\u00a0elements are generated through a system utilizing TouchDesigner, Processing and Max\/MSP. Processing both passes data to TouchDesigner 1. Through OSC and Max\/MSP and 2. Video to Spout, an inter application video program. <\/span><\/p>\n

L<\/strong>earning\u00a0a new instrument can be difficult for a number of people. The aim of this exhibit is to provide an easier approach to musical creation, lowering the barrier to entry for visitors to participate.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
