KromoZone Intermedia
Software Development Site

This series of pages exists for two primary reasons: 1-the dissemination of information about our own custom developed software for the Intermedia Performance System, and 2-crediting others technological work that we have built our system around. A third reason this page exists is to provide a forum to discuss the technological issues and challenges inherent in an undertaking such as this.

the KromoZone Network

The KromoZone Intermedia Performance System is build upon an infrastructure that relays all performance data in the system over the ethernet based LAN. All extensions to the system are built out from here. The system allows for not only real-time interaction, but intraaction: where performers can actual (via the network) get "inside" each others instrument(s) and affect the output.



(click to enlarge) This screenshot shows the user-interface window for the network client which is loaded on every computer in the system. The clients all communicate through custom developed server software via the CrazyTalk protocol.
