INSTRUCTIONS: | |||
Welcome to My Other Half | |||
1- In order to interact, it is required to have 2 players with 2 computers. One player should have a computer with a Webcam and the other should have a headphone. | |||
2- To set the connection between 2 computers, all players should be aware of their IP addresses and should be connected to the Internet through the same WIFI. Since the communication between 2 computers are both ways, each Player has their own “jit.net.send” and “jit.net.recv” objects. Therefore, they are both the sender and the receiver. How to open patch, how to deal with port numbers, and how to insert IP address will be explained in the following paragraph: | |||
3- Player 1 should follow the instructions on how to connect her Webcam to the patch. After each Player opens their patches, they both should enter each other's IP addresses to their own “jit.net.send” objects and make sure the port numbers are the same. | |||
HINT: Make sure your PC security programs/firewalls are enabling MAX to send and receive messages | |||
4- My Other Half starts with Player 1. She should move her hands facing the Webcam and which will create data numbers. | |||
5- These numbers will be delivered to the patch of Player 2. On the Left Ear of Player 2, the modified melody(the melody modifies within some aspects from the numbers received from Player 1) will be played. | |||
6- Player 2 then needs to open her Right Ear, to her own designed melody. According to the patch of Player 2, some data numbers will be ready to be sent to the patch of Player 1. | |||
7- The received data numbers start to change the Webcam screen of Player 1. | |||
8- Player 1 can see how Player 2 modified her Webcam attributes and how her appearance is changed. (saturation, brightness, contrast, hue angle, theta, gain, and speed(qmetro)) | |||
9- My Other Half is now set as an interactive experience. Each player forwards their data consecutively. | |||
ENJOY! | |||
P.S.: Both patches are worked together and the final outcome is a collaborative work of 2 people who had no idea about MAX before this class! | |||
