Title
Towards an interactive multimedia experience for club music and dance
Abstract
In this paper, we describe completed and ongoing work towards an interactive multimedia system that will appeal to today's youth culture identified as most likely to adopt such novel mobile applications that combines music, dance and technology. We describe our work in the application of three types of successful movement recognition applied in the field of Tai Chi with the objective being to identify gestural primitives of club dance associated with electronic dance music. In this approach, dance movements are first recognized and classified and then mapped, using multiple levels of complexity, to higher level algorithms that can modify multimedia content in real time. The paper describes the mechanisms supporting an attractive alternative to the now standard Video Disc Jockey (VJ) in which members of the dance public are empowered to create multimedia content in real time as opposed to the VJ.
