Experiments: Midi driven VFX
Project: Paternity leave fun with Unity and MIDI
Role: DevelopeR / musician
Platforms: Mac/PC
TECHNOLOGIES: Unity, Midi controllers
FEATURED API'S: midi jack
Unity's Visual Effects Graph (VFX Graph) debuted a few years ago and has been progressively getting more powerful and easy to use. from previous professional projects, I've always  had a huge interest in creating user-driven effects and experiences, but using very traditional modes of input (i.e. motion, movement, sound, etc). In this case, I wanted to see what I could achieve by connecting traditional musical instruments.
using midi controllers, I connected a piano, a drum set and an electric guitar. I measured various inputs to produce effects: for example, on piano, I used factors like key speed, pressure, and duration to produce an effect.
