WiiWhorld Released: Generative Visuals with Wiimote and Windows
Aforementioned visual synthsizer slash exercise tool WiiWhorld has been released for public consumption.
Jeff Mission has tied together GlovePIE (for Bluetooth/Wiimote input (previously on CDMo)), Whorld, and his own secret sauce (a GlovePIE script to control Whorld).
Put them all together with a dash of virtual midi port, and you get this:
Or as Jeff describes it:
Whorld is a free, open-source, live visual synthesizer for sacred geometry. It uses math to create a seamless animation of mesmerizing psychedelic images. You can VJ with it, make unique digital artwork with it, or sit back and watch it like a screensaver. The WiiWhorld project makes it possible to control the Whorld visualizer with the Nintendo Wiimote.

Thanks for the link! I just updated my blog page with more information on the Wiimote mappings - what each of the buttons and accelerometers do.
For non-Wiimote users, I also have a speech command script for Whorld - to be published soon…

Really is amazing how much homebrew stuff is being done with the Wiimote that has nothing to do with ‘video’-games’ as such… Nintendo must be stoked.

IMO the real hero here is MEMS, not Nintendo… i wonder if nintendo had any idea this sort of thing would come so soon after the Wii’s release! (as if it wasn’t hard enough to get WiiMotes in some places)
