Wow, that's truly awesome Barry.
Nice Work From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Barry van Oudtshoorn Sent: Thursday, October 27, 2011 9:25 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [Moo] TrackPerformer Hi all, I've just pushed my latest pet project, TrackPerformer up to GitHub. To quote my blog post on the project, "TrackPerformer provides a visual stage for your music, using HTML5 canvas and audio. On that stage, performers "play" the instruments in the music visually. In other words, it's a visualisation system for music, but based on the notation (the abstract) rather than the audio (the manifestation)." It's written with MooTools (of course!), and, at this initial stage, will allow users to write their own "performers" to perform the music. As yet, I've not added support for multiple audio fallbacks, so you'll need to take a look in an OGG-supporting browser -- I developed it in Firefox, so your mileage may vary in other browsers, at least until I clean it up a bit and do some proper cross-browser testing. The format of the music is a JSON-representation of "tracker" music -- you can read up on it on Wikipedia at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tracker_%28music_software%29 . Basically, once the "notation" has been converted into JSON, you then assign "performers" to each of the instruments (as many performers per instrument as you like), and away you go!
