MIDITRON Wireless!!! is finally out... and a class

[Marlon Barrios Solano]

Sensors for Dancers: Wireless Sound and Video Control Through Movement

Wednesdays 2/13. 2/20. 2/27, 6:30-9:30 pm

Instructor: Eric Singer

This class will introduce sensor technology to dancers and others interested in controlling audio and video using movement. Students will learn to use the new MidiTron Wireless interface (http://miditron.com), wire and connect motion sensors (bend, flex, distance, acceleration, etc.) and control sound and video on computer. The interface and sensors can be integrated into costumes and body suits, allowing wireless freedom of movement while tracking body position and motion.

No prior knowledge of electronics or programming is required for this class. You will start from scratch, learning the basic concepts required to accomplish the class goals. You will leave with the tools to do basic work in sensor-based multimedia control and a strong foundation for going further.

Two price options are being offered. Students wishing to purchase an interface and sensors may choose Option 1. This includes the MidiTron Wireless interface at a $100 discount, plus an assortment of sensors. Option 2 does not include the MidiTron Wireless; one will be loaned for the duration of the class.

Option 1: $300 + $425 including MidiTron Wireless and sensors

Option 2: $325 without MidiTron Wireless
