Hello, all!

This is long overdue, but here's a project I worked on last year called TypeStar, which is basically an ultra fancy karaoke machine that generates kinetic type animations in realtime with the music, so you can fly around the text, etc.

Here's a screencast demo:

I'd like to put up an applet version, but minim hates telling me the proper player.length() when it's streaming. There's also some modelXYZ stuff that's been broken forever, but I'm tired of waiting around. Smiley

Any thoughts would be much appreciated.

thats really nice. I was so tired of all these typo animations and always thought there should be an interactive one that just uses the lyrics files with timestamps... You did it, great job!

Very nice project. Does it load the lyrics from a textfile? Do you have a rough code for this one! Like your project man.

The lyrics come from a text file from the game Ultra Star. I posted the code and some app exports if anyone is interested:
