I just wanted to share this with the group

Animusic Pipe Dreams

 

Cool stuff. Thanks for sharing Chip.

 

That's good stuff, but pretty old. You should rent the whole dvd off netflix. Watch that Bad Dad in 5.1 on a big screen. 8 feet or more. Good stuff.

 

Shay, your avatar sucks.

 

Would have been cool to see that if it were real.

 

looks like something that the blue man group should do for real.

 

Jealous still? Don H might be willing to sell his set still. I just saw him at the track event in G-ville Saturday. He did great but was running stock all the way around. I think he said he hasn't had the Works on since first part of the year so maybe they are just waiting for the right buyer???? It's all you buddy.

 

I have the second AniMusic CD... better than the first, more action. My dad gave it to me for Christmas, him and my brother already had #1.

You have to know the details behind AniMusic, though, to truly appreciate it. In your typical computer animation, every frame is layed out by hand. In the case of AniMusic, they gave the animation scripts some smarts about physics. The computer looks at the MIDI file, determines when (for example, in the case of the video linked above) a ball should be launched so that it hits a drum/pipe/etc. when the MIDI file says the sound is to be played, and automatically lays when/where a ball should be launched/land.

 

Anything can be had for a price.
