I think this was first done longer than a year ago, actually. I recall a san francisco based technology/performance artist doing something like this, with multiple musicians in different locations, playing over the net. Seems like it was at least two years ago, but I'm not real sure. >we have seen some pretty amazing music technology which is very new.I am >thrilled with possibilies---like wouldnt it be cool to control stage >lighting >effects via midi and midi sequencing so that colors swirl and undulate in >precision with the music.Some very starling performances to a future >surprised >( dessert anyone?) audience as I am convinced that art + music will be >one of >the next frontiers.... You could do that now, with Midi Show Control and typical lighting rigs. Also, I once talked to a guy at a laserium show who said all his laser stuff was controlled by midi. So there ya go, no reason to wait. You could probably set up Max patches that react to musical events by doing particular things with the lights, and then improvise it all. My neighbor does really creative lighting for raves and clubs as a hobby, I'll ask him about that sometime. He'd probably know what gear is available. kim ________________________________________________________ Kim Flint 408-752-9284 Mpact System Engineering kflint@chromatic.com Chromatic Research http://www.chromatic.com
