for synthese exploration, i think ali momeni "active mapping space" (cf nime 05) is a good idea.
(we already talk about it).
(cnmat.cnmat.berkeley.edu/~ali/zShare/Ali%20Momeni/documents/NIME05-ActiveSpaces01.pdf)
i've got a propotype on my computer, but i need to cleanly install iem matrix in order to make it work.
anyway, the autor implementation is limitied to 2 dimentional input, but the wacom does provide lot's more :
X, Y, X velocity, Y velocity etc.
so, we need to imagine a n dimentional input parametter, "link" to m dimentional output.
this "active mapping space" implementation should be quite easy once i've got time + iem matrix.
(btw, having multiple Gem windows would also be very usefull for this implementation).
anyway, this is not the best solution, but a 1st step. any more idea would be welcom.
