This is a light saber simulator I made for a music class at my school. It works reasonably well, for the most part. You need to manually load the music files, because I have not used a load bang object. When using the patch that receives the data from the Kinect, open it before the Kinect is plugged in. Then open synapse, and then plug in the Kinect. When closing the patch quit synapse, then unplug the Kinect, and then close the patch; otherwise Max might crash and create problems with the patch. I have included a how to video in case you need it, hope you enjoy it. FYI: I have not included the CNMAT folder, as you do not need it.
