LAVA - Live Ambient Visualization Application
Monday June 30, 2008
This one of many photos from the Mos Def performance that shows our team testing the system prior to the sound check. LAVA is a system that I built with Alex Alexanian, Mike Miller and Erick Carlson of o2 Creative Solutions that provides performers with on-stage control of all visuals and includes an on-board MIDI sensor array that allows for expansion to a wide range of analog sensors including foot pedals, potentiometers, touch sensors, accelerometers, etc. that can be integrated into the system using a standard 1/4 " TRS Jack. Media is selected by using a large (15 " vertically mounted) capacitive touch screen which connects to custom software written using Apple's Xcode and Quartz Composer.
