Alan Yu: Projection Mapping 1 Rework

After Monday's class, I felt like I did not do this project justice. I decided to do a different take, and have some of my own twists. 

I have been remaking some of the most iconic video game/animation OSTs, and I just to have a simple MIDI file that goes with a track from SpongeBob SquarePants called "Electric Zoo." I knew I wanted to use that midi data as well as Ableton Link to map some parameters. I started with a simple gif of Mr. Crabs dancing to the song.

Ableton Link Enabled

Ableton sent Midi data and BPM (Ableton Link) to MadMapper

Link Notes to Trigger Strings

I found a "String Instrument" visual in the public library. I mapped the notes from Ableton in the Control list.

First Prototype

Next, I decided to make some other scenes using different media and project them in a stage background.
