Our fully realized idea

Left Hand: Y controls both color and note, and the Z controls the type of instrument.

Right Hand: Y controls both form (position of particle system) and note, and the Z controls type of instrument.

However, the problem with this is that we would have two sets of Arduinos utilizing two applications, which was then advised by Danny we would need OSC to communicate both Ableton and TouchDesigner. So Danny advised on separating our gloves to one tool each as show below:

We wanted to still further into the glove/instrument idea, so Rebecca and I decided to do sets of gloves ourselves and came up with this:

We imagine two people, one with the sound and another with the visual set of gloves - and if we further this project to put the ideas together.

Figuring out TouchDesigner

My next steps this next week in TouchDesigner is adding the controller code within the Arduino code and connecting the serial port with two Arduinos.
