Albert Einstein once said - "I have no special talents. I am only passionately curious" Collaborating with Cory Guynn and Alicia Lorenzetti we did exactly that and followed our passion for #Music, #Programmability and #Technology presenting at #CiscoLive Las Vegas in June 2024 the "Meraki Musical Alchemy - Turn Tech into Music". At Cisco Live, or rather Disco Live we used #Meraki #Smart #Cameras and #Sensors to orchestrate a musical performance by leveraging platform programmability and #Ableton. It's rather a simple idea; When the camera detects people it publishes this and more in #MQTT (A lightweight messaging protocol) to a broker which then translates this into actionable commands such as playing a music track on the Ableton mixer. And because each camera is mapped to a layer/track in a song, you can simply play your own arrangement of a song by showing up in front of that camera! Here are some highlights from our session at Cisco Live! #Followyourpassion
To be clear, the chances of a Cisco Live session becoming a smart-camera driven dance party are not high, but it's more than zero 🕺 💃
TBF, you and Alicia Lorenzetti are a couple of rock stars!
Sharing that passionately curious experience and all findings definitely leads to more things to be passionately curious about. Thanks for all you do to spread the energy 🙏🏼💕
