We dived into the Virtools SDK and main coder of Knip 'n Plak wreck and myself coded the plugin. Now the TAKT project has finished and performed we decided to release the plugin and code under the GNU Lesser Public License. UPDATE: Version 2 supports stereo sound. We know some people have been adding this already. We've included this feature in this new release.

In what way can we identify ourselves with and feel responsible for our digital selves. What happens when we cannot control our digital selves. What has been taken away from you? This project is a theatrical research to responsibility in the virtual world. A coorporation of the HKU and z25.org Foundation. We created a theatrical experience in which we copied the audience to the virtual world by using 3d visualisation and scanning techniques. 14, … text/html 2009-06-28T00:31:41+02:00 Arnaud Loonstra http://www.sphaero.org/philosophy?rev=1246141901&do=diff ---------- I'm sorry, in Dutch for now. Ik heb altijd al grote vraagtekens gezet bij begrippen als ‘Multi Media' en de tegenwoordig vaak gebruikte term, 'Nieuwe Media'. Wat wordt er mee bedoeld. Naar mijn mening lijkt het me dat men het zelf ook niet weet. Een vagere term dan multimedia of nieuwe media kun je ook niet bedenken. Het zijn benamingen voor dingen die nog niet volkomen bevat worden. De toverlantaarn van vroeger is de ‘nieuwe media' van nu. Ik zou eigenlijk een nog vagere te… text/html 2009-06-10T10:32:45+02:00 Arnaud Loonstra http://www.sphaero.org/takt?rev=1244622765&do=diff In this project we were asked to do visualization of life music. We created a virtual environment which reacted to the music and was autonomous in it's control. We tried not make an abstract visualization but tried to tell a story of a girl in hospital. For this we had to write a program which could listen to and analyze live music. We also invited 2 persons from the public who would influence the performance with controls. This was performed on the 9th of March 2003 in Theater De Kom in Ni… text/html 2008-09-04T11:43:53+02:00 Arnaud Loonstra http://www.sphaero.org/netsyncmanager?rev=1220521433&do=diff This plugin will add master/slave networking to Virtools. It's been created for use in a passive stereoscopic setup and will sync the slave to the master system. It's been created for a research about historical stereophotographics and stereographics for use in theatre performances. This research was initiated by Stichting Lange Poten. The plugin was written by Knip 'n Plak coder wreck and myself. text/html 2008-05-29T14:58:34+02:00 Arnaud Loonstra http://www.sphaero.org/projects?rev=1212065914&do=diff These are projects I've worked on or am working on.

Inside the tram he's telling about experiences he had in live. Through the telling of his experiences he explains what he's doing and why. A philosophical approach to our constant dualism; judgement about right and wrong and our fear towards not being in control. The first production of “Koud uit de Koelkast Smeerbaar”. An experiment to create a short film whithout knowing where it would end exactly. An 'open dramaturgic' approach …
