cool, there's lots of fun projects so far... My project I'm starting on is some dj/vj/game software for parties. Mostly it's at the concept/research stage at the moment. The main idea is to do simple video games at parties. Where instead of a normal computer, there might be a tv screen, or a projector... and dance mats, or a camera for input -- instead of mice/keyboard.
The idea is to be able to mix in different games, with the music/video presentation. So say you had a space invaders game, you can mix that in with the music which you have going, and with a video you might be playing. Maybe even mixing in multiple games at once... so you could mix space invaders with say pacman. So being able to set the % of the games video coming through, and the % of the games sound being mixed in would be needed. So I guess an interface would be a mixture between http://freej.org/ mixxx.org and the game parts. To be able to beat mix, and to trigger samples easily on the sound side would be nice. Also a basic play list would be good. But maybe a triple play list... one list would have the music, another would have the visuals, and another one the games.
