Projections | Tarim | Altern8

Just a quick update. There's so much going on in the PTTP world at the moment - it's hard to find time to blog about it.

Jon has been really busy on other projects (which I really wish I had time to play!) So, although we have every hope of having a 3D cube to play with in the final showcase, we are going to make our primary demonstration a projection playground.

Richard has joined the team and is writing the drivers for the projection and also working on a controllable "video identikit" playground. This allows people to mix different gurning faces on a projection. More on this later…

The advantage of a projection playground is that, time permitting, we can easily drop in other things to play with. Currently under investigation we have an animated collage, a visual consequences game and the possibility for you to play with some of Joanie's VJ mapping.

We have a test harness for the projection playground up and running. So, if you fancy writing a quick playground then get in touch. (Technically, the projection playground is driven by Flash through its XML socket interface which are controlled from HTML forms.)
