Controlling Games with Sound
The other way around this time (ref), how could games be controlled by sound and instruments? Instead of then playing those instruments to produce a nice song, they are played to control a game character. Nicolas Nova is also interested in this idea.
David Hindman and Spencer Kiser have created sonictroller, whose goal was “to improve upon our physical interface that allows the user to control a video game with sound”. David worked with Evan Drummond on Modal Kombat, “The First Ever Instrument-Controlled Video Game Battle”. The observation video on the sonictroller site is missing, but you can check out a video of Modal Kombat here (24mb quicktime).
