One of my classmates who is a DJ, has connected TouchOSC to a DJ program called ‘Tractor’. He also assigned modulation and volume controls to the accelerometer imbedded in the iPhone so he could manipulate the sound by physically moving the phone itself, which was very impressive.Īnother good thing about TouchOSC is that you can pretty much program it to control any sequencers and the like.

He recorded some vocal samples with it and was able to manipulate it in ways that I don’t really know how to explain yet, just by dragging his finger over the screen in a certain manner. Julio D’escrivan performed a demo for our class using this application and I was very impressed with it. There are various ways to make this work on other OSes I’d need to see what the current Windows-based alternative is, but maybe someone can shout out in comments.TouchOSC is an iPhone and iPod Touch application that is used as a MIDI controller by sending and receiving messages over a wireless network.

Here is a just-updated patch for that, with an assist by the still-awesome macOS-based OSCulator. Again, let’s use tech and not throw it away.

Plus, odds are you can find one of them cheap or even free – possibly in your garage. So sure, some of those are now in your phone, but that doesn’t mean the Wiimotes don’t make handy input devices for a range of live tasks, thanks to their various controls and gestural possibilities.

There’s this great tutorial on Rainbow Difference Trails, which also is a good starter for working with live video feeds and image processing actors in general:Īnd once upon a time, Nintendo’s Wii controller (“Wiimote”) was seen as a pretty stunningly easy way to add motion controls. That’s well known in the (massive!) modern dance market, but maybe underrated elsewhere – even though the same performance features work well in all kinds of live situations. Isadora remains a versatile and powerfully intuitive tool, one that shows its lineage in being designed by people who make performances. (Hmm, it did have some advantages over the current situation, but oh, well.) Let’s add some stuff you can use right now.

And Mark is best known to the media world as the creator behind Isadora (not to mention an innovative tool called Interactor, even earlier). Mark’s company Troika Ranch with choreographer and co-founder Dawn Marie Stoppiello was ground-breaking in its mix of interactive performance, dance, and electronic media.
