Saw it before as well, very impressive. Reaktor made visual!

[Drosophila]

Fucking nice that they have spend so much energy in making this trippy device!

[Stalker]

According to someone else

it actually works on a rather simple input/output method. The input is a video camera, which records the motion, angle and orientation of each block placed on the table.

 

Each symbol on these blocks is then interpreted by the computer and given an ID number which executes a set of instructions depending on its ID.

 

The output isnt a fancy plasma screen either, but a standard projector which projects changes back out to the table to make it semi-interactive.

this is awesome!

 

and actually pretty simple as Stalker explained it...

 

cool

[Bahamut]

very cool, but in essence it's just a different way of controlling a synthesizer(?)

[Deranger]

Whoa, looks interesting!

[Shaft]

Yep, i agree. Nothing new about it musicwise. It's just another synthesizer with fancy controls.

[Shaft]

Well it is and it isn't... Look at all the different devices, sequencers, samplers... It's like a completely modular host application, any device can effect any other device. Extremely cool.

Yeah I really like the "flexibility"... very hands on so to speak

 

I think its just nice to use old things in a "new" way, I mean, it just gives a more direct flow... more like an instrument maybe

[Jon Cocco]

Interesting. The concept seems innovative I presume.

 

But wouldn't this take an awful lot of work to do something that can be perfected on the cpu? You have two hands trying to sync everything up eventually it would seem difficult mixing (bringing in and out) multiple layers of sounds with so many objects on the whatever-thing they're on.

 

Still, looks interesting.

Imagine the future: Ability to Connect it to a laptop or transfer loops from it to the cubes, and 2-3 or more artists playing a live act..

[Trolsk]

Imagine playing shuffle puck on that table with the cubes!

shuffle puck? What's puck?

[Bahamut]

I think we call it air hockey?

[Trolsk]

Ah, yes, shufflepuck is an old school version of air hockey:
