For my sketch, I incorporated a piano that is motion censored(KSlider tool), so when the screen senses a face, it plays notes while also adding a “mask” of the composer Beethoven, I thought this would tie into the whole piano/composer aspect!
A small problem I ran into was how the hand movements, unfortunately, disrupt the mask, but the mask stays on if you control the piano from Max directly by scrolling the mouse over the keys
Without Mask: (Runs way more smoothly)
I credit the KSlider effect help to @AndrewRobinson26 on YT : )
I like the concept of creating music with your arm movements like that – the mask definitely adds a comedic flair to it, so the video is pretty entertaining to watch as well.
I really like how you being the composer effected the music being played. This really looks like you are a conductor and the computer is the composer, I could definitely see a full orchestra play on Max with a user conductor at the front.
This is a great sketch both practically and thematically for this assignment. If you can get the mask to work that would be great, but if not then the sketch is still amazing.
