Re: [microsound] lemur dancefloor?

For hardware hackers with some imagination, the Wacom Cintiq 15 has a  
larger, better quality screen, and is $1000 cheaper. The only catch  
is, Wacom's use special pens, which means you would need to gut some  
wacom pens and tape them to your fingertips. However (for those who  
have used Wacom tablets before), they can sense pressure, rotation,  
and work an inch or two above the surface, not just when touching it.  
And, the tablet itself is just an lcd screen, so you can avoid the  
Lemur's exceedingly limited set of controllers, and pretty much do  
whatever you want. If I had my way (and the money to do any of this),  
I'd spend that leftover $1000 building a set of black leather  
PowerGloves, maybe with some slick black-light stripes ala Tron.
