Isadora

-- PrimalDivine - 21 Aug 2007
I have posted a video on my You Tube location showing a demo of the lanbox in use with Isadora software.
The demo shows interactive motion control of spotlights, the use of a video projector as a follow spot, and vocal control of lights. The video clip is titled 'VIDEMOTE' and was the result of ten days as a research resident at the Shadbolt Theatre in Burnaby.

I will be using the Isadora patch in future collaborative performance projects now that I have had the chance to test it and have it working well. I was very happy with the results. Looking forward to Mark Coniglio (designer of Isadora) adding the ability for Isadora to have the Lanbox information talk back to the software.
Currently it can send DMX commands to the Lanbox, but we cannot see other information at the Lanbox.
There was also a significant issue when jumping scenes in Isadora. The lights did not reset to zero, since in DMX language 'zero' is a number that does not truly represent the same thing as 'turn off light'.
