The State Library’s second Game On night saw a little change of venue to the dim, theatre-esq library lobby, which gave a super cool mezzanine feel to the stage, and may have also caused the invasion from the Dark Side. Fortunately the rebels were able to deliver the security Holodisk safely to Herovision HQ, so [...]

More photos of the launch at flickr, and videos [...]

After a few more weeks of soldering, cabling, and more often then not getting distracting actually playing Rock Band / Guitar Hero, we’ve managed to put together a pretty decent working beta that we’re pretty happy with.

It all must start somewhere. And so it did, with a guitar-hero controller, friendly thermo-plastic, a number of cameras, and an idle thursday afternoon. We experimented with cabling, feedback, visual effects, and camera mounting. Jaymis’ trusty Vixid VJX16-4 mixer provided the centre piece, and we realised the awesome power of this device. Photos from the [...]
