Live
gesture.live is an experimental web application that transforms hand movements captured by a webcam into a playable electronic music instrument. Users can perform chords, basslines, drums, and effects in real time using specific gestures. The interface is optimized for landscape orientation where both hands share the camera frame. It requires no additional hardware beyond a standard webcam and runs directly in the browser, making it accessible for live performance, experimentation, or creative play.
