i've got a few wiimote orchestras. the first thing i did was write a 
pair of macros, one for initialization and one for each devices body. that 
way, i could have more than one. right now i'm playing wiht a pair of 
nerf soccer balls, hollowed out to contain wiimotes. i'm trying to 
work out the geometry to record distance and detect changes of direction. 
i'll put it all up on the web when i get a chance.

wii->midi? that takes all the fun out of it. its these mappings that are 
the crux of the biscut, in my opinion.

 Hey, 

    This is a multi part question.  I have a collaborator who is interested in 
further exploration with the wiimote and dance.  She would like to utilize the 
wiimote with dance to control both the sound design and some video to go with 
her choreography.  I am thinking about using Processing for the the video 
control because it is capable of communicating with OSC, which i have used in 
the past to communicate with Csound.  She would also like the wiimote 
interaction to be more precise than it has been in our past explorations.  I am 
wondering if anyone else who has worked with the wiimote would be willing to 
share there scripts/coding so that I can see other ways to go about interfacing 
with the wiimote, whether it is sound or video related. It also doesn't need to 
be Csound specific.  I am also wondering if there are options other than 
Processing of interfacing the wiimote with video.  Any related discussion is 
welcomed.

I remember hearing something about the will support being platform

This sounds like a lot of fun.

I tried to do this a while back, but I couldn't figure out all the math, so I 
bailed on it. 

 I am definitely interested in what you finally come up with

I completely agree.

Kelly,

If you're not using the OSCulator, how are you getting the input from
the Wii-mote? Wii controls have been on my to-do list for a long time.
I remember hearing something about the will support being platform
specific a while back, but I'm very curious to hear how you do that.


thanks,
A

Personally I use the wiimote opcodes.....

The libwiimote library has just been revitalised as libwiimote-ng

I use the wiimote and NUNCHUK extensively in live performances. I have  
a rather large csd file that allows me to switch from one "patch" to  
another and from one group of "patches" to another easily. It also  
tells me the time by vibrating the wiimote briefly at preset time  
intervals. This project contains the UDOs that Colman was alluding to.

I use it on a Mac, with OSCulator, MacCsound and Csound 5.12.

I'll be happy to send you the csd, just drop me an email directly. The  
complete project is about 40MB, as it contains a large number of  
samples. If you'd like it all, let me know and I can post it to the  
web for your download.

To John ff: I was not aware of wii opcodes in csound. Thanks for  
pointing these out.
