Hand Tracking to Glitch Sound

Webcam hand tracking driving glitch sound design in real time. Groundwork for a live A/V set, and probably a Max for Live device after that.

Prototyping for a future A/V performance, and probably a Max for Live device to go with it. Making glitch sounds with a webcam is far too much fun. 🌫️

Hand position and finger articulation are tracked from a plain webcam feed, then mapped straight onto sound design parameters, so the gesture and the noise move together with nothing in between.
