Today we finished our latest micro project, a Multi-Touch Midi Sequencer for OS X made with OpenFrameworks.



This was a very short project, but still the sequencer works pretty well. Any software that can receive Midi can be used together with it. In the video we're using ReacTIVision for blob tracking and Reason for generating audio. Good Stuff!

Here are the results of the "fast prototyping" we did the other day. We made two conceptual drum kit apps for our multi-touch screen, but at the moment the latency is far too high. While making this we came up with the winning idea for our next project, an intuitive MIDI-sequencer for multi-touch systems. More about that later...



Junhee appears to be the worst drummer ever, but it's mostly because of the high latency, right? : )

At the moment the IMG512 team is generating ideas for new multi-touch applications. We are using openFrameworks for prototyping and it does have some great features.

Find out more at http://www.openframeworks.cc/ Note that they haven't reached beta yet, but still it looks good so far.

Our first prototype is a music application that will allow multiple users to create fun noise together. We hope we will get a chance to test it before we go home today. We didn't :(

I promised to post a few more photos from the exhibition last Monday too. Here we go.

Finally here is some more video from the event. This is a mildly modified version of Memo Akten's MSAFluid class for processing. Visit him at http://www.memo.tv/

The 3rd Exhibition at Zenitum is over and I'm happy to announce that it was a huge success. A lot of interesting people showed up and we got to show our latest creations in a festive atmosphere.



Here's a little video of what we were up to the other night...

Junhee explained about our HUGE multi-touch screen that recently got renamed to Tabio (like the sock brand and the Colombian town) and he demonstrated the Second Life client.
