After an e-mail from my supervisor, i realized that boxing can be seen as violent.
After some brainstorming myself once more i decided that the basis of my project would be teaching maths through music (hence the name Music Squared). After more discussion with some other lecturers i found that musical notes are made up with fractions so i could use music to teach 4th year class students (approx 11 years old) maths.
Trying to now convert this idea into a interactive project is the hard part now. I tried to come up with different ideas myself but kept hitting a brick wall.
Today i just had one of my first meetings with my supervisor and we both came up with a plausible idea.
The idea is to use an interactive wall and floor to create music. The floor would be the rhythm section and the wall will be the pitch. There will be an array of primary coloured circles - on the wall maybe making the colour lighter for the higher note and on the floor making making the circle smaller/bigger for the note length.
I will probably use webcams to detect the position of the users hand or foot -- i will need a semitransparent wall so i can back project the graphics.
This idea is still very fresh in my head so i am gonna do some more brainstorming and sketching over the next few days.
I'll be back soon with more developments....
