One major challenge was transforming the raw data in a way that was intuitive for the performer. By recording\u00a0 full range of sample motions we were able to set useful ranges and connect them to parameters of the triggered sounds.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/threeformfashion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/14707838621_8bd7799b9c_o.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-333\" title=\"14707838621_8bd7799b9c_o\" src=\"http:\/\/threeformfashion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/14707838621_8bd7799b9c_o.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"966\" height=\"809\" srcset=\"https:\/\/threeformfashion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/14707838621_8bd7799b9c_o.jpg 966w, https:\/\/threeformfashion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/14707838621_8bd7799b9c_o-300x251.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 966px) 100vw, 966px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Our demo went well.
