Hello Eli, and all,

we have made a number of pieces in which Director-controlled still pictures
and also videos were controlled by a dancer's movements as interpretted by
EyeCon (palindrome's motion tracking system).

a simple, and effective example is to let a video play as long as there is
movement, and stop when movement stops.  graduated speed control is
somewhat more difficult, but also possible, ie. faster movement= faster
video.  come to think of it, we did a piece once in which a video sequence
played forward with motion direction in one direction, and backwards in the
other.

with friendly regards,
robert
