i had a few emails demanding a better and simpler explanation of temporal interference (ti). apparently my description was not very n00b friendly or technically accurate enough for some people. so whilst i’m not your dancing bear,  here you go …

• dancer moves
• dancers movement triggers theremin
• theremin generates two analog signals (one from each antenna)
• analog signals are converted into midi data (two midi signals)
• midi data (values 0 – 127) sent to max/msp/ jitter
• max utilizes midi data in multiple max patches for control and generation of audio/video, e.g.:
  • zoom
  • saturation
  • stills & video capture
  • audio samples
  • pitch (frequency)
  • perceived volume (oscillation)

… and thats the way it is.
