Re: [microsound] installation/sound/movement

["Nate Harrison" <nate@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello

There certainly exists visual/audio projects like you describe. You might
do well to check out Cycling74's Max/MSP/Jitter (especially the Jitter
add-on) Jitter is all about using video to manipulate audio and vice
versa. You could plug a DV camera into your laptop and record things in
realtime and have that data influence audio, or whatever you want. Pretty
cool stuff...
hope that helps
