Bill was happy with our work, and we had a great time doing it!

Task

Our instructor Bill wanted us to make something with phidgets that could be played like a musical instrument, with the ability to improvise and make serendipitous mistakes.

My Role

My teammate Frank and I used Wiimotes, MaxMSP, and Phidgets to make an old-school, 8-bit music performance. I built the stage and set up the phidgets to respond to inputs from the wiimotes.
