This application based on Christopher Nolan's film is an application that pushes the boundaries on similar film applications due to its ability to make the listener feel as if they are experience similar dreams to Leonardo DiCaprio in the film thanks to a numerous use of musical effects as well as featuring Hans Zimmer soundtrack. With the ability of tablet technology using geo-location as a feature within many applications, an example of this is the Inception app which itunes released in order to enable a user to enhance a unique experience of the film. This composition featured the electronic sounds as well as rhythmical grooves on the acoustic drum kit which were accompanied by a bass guitar groove and a melodic chord progression on the electric guitar.
#Osculator wiimote Patch
Regarding this, the electronic drum pads were connected to a patch made in Max MSP which produced sounds that were created by Tam in Logic Pro 9.
These installations were soon faded out so that the drum composition could begin. Each of these installations was connected to the PA so that the audience were experience a number of sounds being produced at different points. As well as this Ivor had created a number of scenes in the iphone application RjDj which used a number of loops from Tam's composition but altered them through using a number of effects and audio signals from the the microphone which was attached to the iphone. Mike had created a patch in Max MSP which was controlled by a Moog Theramin, the idea of this was to manipulate the composition through specific hand movements on the theramin. The following picture shows my final patch that I used for the Rudimentology workshop:Īt the start of the piece myself, Ivor and Mike started of the performance. As well as this even when moving the ball in a numerous ways this affected the loops produced and the buffer object within the Max MSP patch. From this, this meant that when the Wii remote controller was thrown in the air a small loop would be produced when passed number 0.52 in the Max MSP patch. The patch in itself used the information of the pitch/yaw/roll movements in order to trigger of a number of loops that I had edited that were from Tam's Log Pro file. The patch that myself and Simon had developed over a few months used and manipulated Tam's electronic drum composition. As a result of this, this meant that I needed to purchase OSculator in order to keep a a regular signal between the controller and my patch (thankfully OSculator ask for donations towards their software, this donation cost £7).
#Osculator wiimote software
Regarding the software OSculator, I had a number of problems with this software during the development of the Wii Ball, this was mainly due to the demo version that I was using as the software would stop the bluetooth signals from the Wii remote controller to the Max MSP patch.
Through using a software named OSculator I was able to connect a Wii remote controller to Max MSP through bluetooth signals the effect of this meant that I was able to manipulate the functions of the controller into a patch designed into Max MSP. My completed installation was the Wii Ball in which I have been working and developing on over the past year.
