ANNOUNCE: Luz First Release v0.5
What is it? =========== Luz is a new concept in live music visualization, focusing on 2D graphics moving in a 2D or faux-3D world, all with tight music integration. Tradeable plugins provide the shapes, behaviors, and visual effects, and all aspects of all plugins can be easily animated to the beat, time, or (coming soon) controlled directly using input devices such as keyboards and Wii remotes. Some good examples of this style are... ...Gnarles Barkley's "Crazy" music videos (both of them): http://youtube.com/results?search_query=gnarles%20crazy ...Moby's "Escapar" music video: http://youtube.com/results?search_query=moby+escapar Luz is written in Ruby. It uses OpenGL for output and Gtk+ with Glade for the user interface.
