8 video channels

Software design for a 8 screen interactive video installation. The installation runs on one computer with 4 video cards with 8 video outputs in total. Completely synced playback of the video. Controlled by two max-msp/jitter patches that allow super fast switching of the video sources. A fire wire webcam is used to detect movement and determine interaction.

Telephone Sound Database

The vintage telephone is modified and connected to a software patch.

The visitor in the one person theater piece hears spoken choice menus (56 audio files) when picking up the Horn, by pressing the dials on the phone the visitor navigates through the menu's that construct a storyline. A radio suddenly starts to play in the room when a certain choice is made. The events and sound database are controlled by the software.

Wireless footpedal

This prototype is wireless and is made from an old Organ footpedal and wireless keyboard.

The incoming key messages can trigger events, soundfiles or generate Midi-messages to control Midi instruments.

for prototyping

Button Interface

This machine displays videos, by pressing buttons you can zap through the different videos in a fast and happy way.

The buttons are connected to a hacked keyboard, making the whole installation super universal and fast.

After power out the machine reboots like nothing happened.
