I partecipanti al workshop apprenderanno come gestire attraverso il movimento o i gesti del corpo, un’interfaccia interattiva che controlla varie periferiche quali sorgenti video, sintetizzatori audio, illuminazioni teatrali ecc. In pratica questo software insieme ad un’interfaccia midi e sensori di motion-capture sono in grado di rendere il performer "animatore" in tempo reale di qualsiasi strumento digitale. http://www.troikaranch.org/  VITE3 -LABORATORIO DI WEB CAM TEATRO- con Giacomo Verdehttp://www.brunel.ac.uk/daphttp://www.troikaranch.org/shapeimage_1_link_0shapeimage_1_link_1
