Name is TBD

We are playing to create semi-interactive 3D music video. We will have specific song that the visuals play to, an ideally have it loop multiple times. As of now we are hoping to build a series of shapes, displaying on a black/white/neutral background, that adapt according to the music. A possibility we are also discussing is having the music adjust according to the user’s movements.

General inspiration video: SYNESTHESIA

We have some experience in music production, hopefully enabling us to adjust our sound according. Overall we also know general programming, which will make the starting process easier. Also a background in design, which may make creating the patterns easier.

All of us are pretty unfamiliar with making 3D objects and using the CAVE and Rift systems.

UPDATE for 3/28

Simon went through the tutorials for Open GL and feels confident about working with it but has yet to experiment with it. Wondering if we need to use Open AL for audio. We plan to experiment with the program on Friday (3/28)
