Live Looping with Ableton and Xbox Kinect



Chris Vik's amazing live performance at Microsoft's REMIX11 conference is build on his Kinect/Ableton/Max setup:
• Ableton Live
• NI Massive
• Max/MSP (making useful MIDI data out of the hand coordinates from OSCeleton)
• Behringer FCB1010 (controlling Ableton, ie. looping, switching the Kinect’s instrument etc)

The Kinect was setup using OpenNI, PrimeSense NITE and OSCeleton.
Enjoy the video!
