My proposal is creating an interactive sonic environment where the presence of the audience manipulates audio effects and sounds. Similar to the blocks on a Reactable, the people within the space depending on their positioning would trigger different effects and sounds. Part of the experience for the audience would be trying to figure out what exactly they are manipulating within the audio, and then being able have more control over the audio experience after they learn how the environment works.
Using a Kinect's blob tracking abilities would be one way to create this type of environment, however due to the limited field of vision of the Kinect, there may have to be more pieces of hardware utilized. In addition to a Kinect, an array of proximity or IR sensors could be placed around the space to detect the presence people and their distances in the room.
