Lights...and Lycra...

It's been a while.
I'm still not 100% sure what I want to do.

....but there's this nagging "thing" that's pretty much been bugging me since uni in 2006.

For years my friends would eventually hear my mention this idea and how great it would be, getting them equally excited about it. Almost expecting me to have made it in a week (stranger things have happened).

But it's a big thing...Even now, talking to MAX/MSP programmers, AV technicians and electronic specialists, they're all saying it's impossible.





Now, initially I would hang up the idea and leave it for dead. But the director of my course (where this idea was born) said it was possible, it was hard as hell, but possible. And for a dissertation, I would have the support of high end tutors (who would probably use part of it for their Masters/PhD programs)

It's possible. It *still* hasn't been done. But one man is on the same wavelength as I am and ahead of me but only by a little:

It's always been a pet peeve of mine when DJing that there's always a *table* in the way. Of course most DJ's are guys and are quite happy behind the table....unless you're Steve Aoki, but I digress :-)

Still...what with all the technological advances in recent years why is there still a table? DJing isn't DJing anymore, it is a performance...visual is taking over to dance with audio, we all know this. But it would appear that DJ's aren't up for prancing around on stage and interacting with their audience all that much...
So yeah...I could go on and on about this but obviously I don't want to start saying stuff then having to renege on it as I really want this to happen and work.

What I WAS wondering is if folks would be interested in it being posted here, or should a sister blog be started for it (and leave the 28days in tact). I'm open to suggestions.

Whilst this is a bit limited, it at least shows other folks are aware of the endless possibilities zentai has (even if they must call it something else):
