Also this week was the first test of the full-body gesture recognition and translation system, downtown at our warehouse space.
With the audio system, video projection, lighting and laptops to run the audio and video software set up, we strapped the sensor system on dancer Forest and ran a short improvised performance where her movements drove both the music and visual compositions.
prototyping the new gesture tracking rig

Over the last few weeks I've been prototyping the sensor rig for the upcoming gesture-driven performance system.
Rotation at each major arm and leg joint is tracked by simple 50k potentiometers. Dual-axis accelerometers are mounted on each hand.

gesture recognition and MaxMSP/Jitter

Starting some experiments next week using live gesture recognition to control projected video sources. Stay tuned ...
Software engineering projects
In addition to working in the interactive media and production environments, I've also worked on a number of projects in the traditional software engineering world. These projects were generally in C/C++ with standard source control and other tools.
Tradeshow kiosks

I designed the UI and built this kiosk for Hughes, installed at a trade show in Switzerland. This was a typical component of a number of installations the Jack Morton team created for major corporate clients, circa 2000.
DRASH interactive design and sales tool
![]()
DRASH makes several lines of modular structures and accessories. This sales tool allows the configuration of these modules in a 2D plan view while simultaneously generating an interactive 3D view of the structure layout. Specifications and information about each component as well as totals such as weight for the entire configuration are also provided. Layouts can be saved for later retrieval.
An on-line version of this application can be run from the DRASH site.
