@The Tank - Callibrating



The interesting question of "Is this all a gimmick?" came up, in regards to all our toys and technology.

It was speculated that it was. At least at the moment. In the end, the show was all about the stories. It was about the actors, on a stage, telling and acting out their fictions and realities to the audience. A mix between drama, music, and comedy.

But the potential is certainly there and i'm glad that we began to investigate it. Already thoughts have been stirring on how to make it even better. The technology just needs to be better integrated with the actual storytelling so that it enhances it, instead of distracting or overpowering the story. It might also be wise to have a separate dancer - who knows the story - interact soley with the kinect, leaving the actor free to best deliver their role

Inside the Tank







Jose and Ryan do things with machines. It was actually a cozy little place. I want one just like it.

Outside the Tank







Here we are outside the Tank. You know what would be a cool space for projections? That big barren wall.

And guess who was performing down the street. I'll give you a hint - it was Daniel Radcliffe.
