SOMEONE BUILT A WEBSITE THAT TURNS YOUR HAND MOVEMENTS INTO ELECTRONIC MUSIC
no controller, midi keyboard, or hardware at all
you just move your hands in front of your webcam and it makes music
> your left hand is the chord instrument
> hold up fingers to count the chord degree, one finger is the i, four fingers is the iv, and it plays that chord in key
> flip your palm over to switch between major and minor, point your fingers down to flatten it, and roll your wrist to sweep the filter cutoff
> hand height controls how much spice is in the chord, so raising your hand takes a basic triad up to a 7th
> your right hand is the fx and dj side. pinch different fingers for different effects, index is the filter, middle is delay and reverb wash, ring is a stutter gate, pinky is bit crush, and a fist clears everything
> theres a live chop rate you control by hand too, 1/4 through 1/32
> everything is timed to a live bpm and swing, so it stays in time while you play
the whole thing runs on your webcam in a browser tab, nothing to install and nothing leaves your device
