I had no idea the reactable could be replicated in the home. if an easier to understand software version were released so people could hok up a webcam and print out some figures, maby use a moniter to track some of the effects it would be so popular. I figured reactable was crazy expensive hardware that no normal (poor, me) person could ever afford!
2 friends and i installed reactavision soft ware and within a day had a feducial mobile that played ambient music and in a couple more days a glass top 4 track loop mixing desk with chess pieces for controls, the midi aspect of it is a head fuck if not for my blind m8 Jimmy who has been screwing with midi since 486s couldnt have done it... great stuff... but not smart enought to point a camera at ourselvs doing. it...
I tried this a little while ago... got reacTIVISION working on my Mac, no problem. It was picking up the sheet of ficudial symbols I had printed out.
I played around a bit but I don't have it in me to write the synth part of it.
And since the MTG guys wish to keep their synth component and flashy graphics a secret, I'd be grateful if you were to release the source for whatever you cook up. :)
it was the fastest way, because i didn't want to look through all the manuals ^^ but for now it seems to me that I should do. An own synthesizer was a bit to much. It was already working, but the synthie couldn't deal with many tracks
wow i checked on suppercollider, and that looks freakin cool stuff, in combination with reacvision it would be awesome. I tried out reacvision myself today and it works like a sharm, even with a cheap ass webcam :)
I'm much more frustrated by the programming than the construction...you said it took you 40 minutes? I've been trying for a week now...and I still haven't figured out how to get sound out of my sound app (reaktor). did you use midi or TUIO?
hi okoman - im planing to build a own reac table with a friend - but we have some problems :(
can you help us? - we tried it with the demo.xml and got it also to work (with only one bing-sound) but we dont know how to combine symbols with own midis...

why did you decide to write your own software instead of using something that is already buikt like pd or supercollider?

As I already mentioned in the vid description, I created my own program, which receives TUIO messages, processes them and then plays music.
And so I'm coding now my own synthesizer to build a "real" reacTable. But it's taking much more time than I expected... ^^

Next week there's no school. I'm going to build a real reacTable, beacuse in the vid it's just a big piece of paper.
So due to the huge interest I will take some fotos, amke some vids and put them together to a tutorial. So stay tuned ;)
