Converge!

Tomorrow will be the day where Intergalactic Jams is open for the public at Box Hill’s ‘Converge’.

Im very excited to have this up and running for people to see officially for the first time. It’ll be intriguing to watch how users interact it and what is most impressive to them.

This past week has been finalising for Converge night and making the finishing touches. Getting my hands on some black cloth to cover tables, fine tuning sound design etc. I feel everything should come together nicely on the night and be a pleasing audio and visual display.

Keen to see you there!

Setup and Photoshoot

A more complete test run was done today, that involved flashy visual elements and almost full sound functionality.

As far as sounds and functionality go we were quite pleased how it all looked. Velocity sensitive piezo’s for the stacks worked very well. Now will just be a matter of fine tuning sound design of the multiple instruments and making them sit right with one another.

Visuals are on their way as well. Placing 2 parcans in audio trigger mode worked quite effectively in adding that visual element that was lacking. We are also working on more ‘intergalactic’ type vision that will be projected into the room. Using a patch like Vizzable will hopefully have video clips triggering for each different chord that is struck by the user on the sample pad.
