We reviewed our “ges­ture” projects in class last night, and while I think we all had some inter­est­ing ideas, no one envi­sioned an inter­face where your entire body could pro­vide the input.

I just found out about this project called “You Move You Interact,” described as:

…an inter­ac­tive instal­la­tion, where one is sup­posed to build up a body lan­guage dia­logue with an arti­fi­cial sys­tem so as to effec­tively achieve a syn­chro­nized per­for­mance between the real user’s body and the vir­tual object itself. The project aims at explor­ing a spa­tial sphere, where the user/performer is invited to develop his own cre­ative inspi­ra­tion based on his own body ges­tures and move­ments. [ymyi.org]

Also inter­est­ing: It’s done using Processing.
