Above are videos I was recommended to look at by an interactive design student. I became aware that I needed to install and use a software called 'Processing' to get the Kinect to work. I also needed to learn what code to put into processing;
A website that shows code examples. http://shiffman.net/p5/kinect/
Further research took me to youtube videos by other artists using this Processing software, of interactive art installations, and below is something like what I want to achieve:
The above art installation cited a book in the description which I found useful, Greg Borenstein author of "Making Things See".
Reflections so far:
This is the most difficult thing i've ever done, after hours I still cannot get the Kinect to work on the computer:
Further research:
- An artist that works with processing and xbox kinect: http://ericmedine.com
- A code for processing that could work with kinect : https://github.com/CodingRainbow/Rainbow-Code/blob/master/Processing/12_kinect/sketch_12_1_ClosestThing/sketch_12_1_ClosestThing.pde
- After talking to a student from Interactive design, he advised me to download a software called modul8 and try using the kinect with that.
- Further research online and on youtube suggests you can link your kinect sensor with modulate and control it.
