We reviewed our “gesture” projects in class last night, and while I think we all had some interesting ideas, no one envisioned an interface where your entire body could provide the input.
I just found out about this project called “You Move You Interact,” described as:
…an interactive installation, where one is supposed to build up a body language dialogue with an artificial system so as to effectively achieve a synchronized performance between the real user’s body and the virtual object itself. The project aims at exploring a spatial sphere, where the user/performer is invited to develop his own creative inspiration based on his own body gestures and movements. [ymyi.org]
Also interesting: It’s done using Processing.
