Hi Dave,

I'm a huge fan of this software/art project. They use Blender for the
interface and I beleive there is (or used to be) some Puredata in there.
I was so impressed with the idea that I started something similar using
Puredata and GEM:

To my mind, 3d game-like synthesizer interfaces are one way of keeping
electronic music performance distinctively non-boring. I'm really excited
about the future of this kind of stuff and similar things where audio
artists collaborate with visual artists by sending their OSC packets to
their 3d program. I guess it's like a more structured and planned
version of what sometimes goes on in a livecoding situation.

Best,

Chris.
