Alive

Beta · in development

Software that reads a crowd — by ear, by eye, or both — and turns what it reads into live parameters for your show.

Works with the industry standard.

Alive speaks MIDI and OSC, so it plugs into the software you already run.

Try it

Make some noise.

This sketch only hears how loud your room is, in your browser — nothing is recorded or sent. Alive's model reads far more, and in beta it still gets it wrong sometimes.

  1. 01

    Listens

    A camera and a microphone, pointed at the crowd. Audio, video or both — depending on the model.

  2. 02

    Reads the room

    The model turns what it hears and sees into live parameters: how alive the room is, from calm to hype.

    Speaks

    MIDI and OSC to anything that listens. DATs straight into TouchDesigner.

    Your show answers

    Your visuals, your lights, your rules. Alive sets the temperature.

It works. It isn't finished.

The software runs today. The model that reads the crowd is still learning, and it isn't right every time. We'd rather build the rest with the artists who'll use it — if you have a show coming up, we'd like Alive in it.
