  • fijuu is a 3D, audio/visual installation. Using a PlayStation-style gamepad, the player(s) of fijuu dynamically manipulate 3D instruments to make improvised music. fijuu is built using the open source rendering engine OGRE and runs on Linux. in the future fijuu will be released as a Linux live CD project, so players can simply boot up their PC with a compatible gamepad plugged in, and play without installing anything (regardless of operating system). This effectively turns the domestic PC into a console for game based audio performances.

    • See the project outline for a quick overview of Fijuu2.

    a few experiments

    i'm back in australia at the moment, visiting family and having a bit of a break.

    i had this fanciful plan that i would spend time away from the computer, but i quickly relented and got into a bit of noodling. the most fijuu-related of these experiments has been replicating the 'mesh-warp' feature, that is the basis of fijuu, into a GLSL shader. in other words, moving the work off of the cpu and into the graphics card. i'm not really sure if it's a good idea yet, but at the moment it's just an interesting hack.

    here are some screenshots. i have been doing these experiments in ogre, which explains the appearance of the ubiquitious ogre head.
