Hi everyone. Been using MAX/MSP a while but fairly new to Jitter/OpenGL and hoping to get better with time.

Slowly working my way through tutorials but need some guidance/suggestions on an idea I have.

Wanting to know firstly, if it can be done, and secondly, some suggestions where to start.

I want to take a video, then make it appear to shatter into tiny pieces (broken glass), then pick up a single piece and move it around. Simple?

I have Kinect up and running and spitting out various data as a means of control.

hi Klaus. search the file browser for mesh.shatter.maxpat for a starting point to work from.

Your idea sounds sort of feasible, but you'll probably want to get really familiar with a few basics before you try to jump into it. Based on what you've said, you'll probably want to be looking at the jit.phys objects, jit.gl.multiple, and maybe some jit.gl.mesh and learning how textures work.

These aren't really beginner topics, but if you can get the hang of jit.matrix data and how that relates to OpenGL, you can probably make a workable solution.

Thank you to both of you for your starting suggestions!

I am going to look more closely at the mentioned objects today.

Hopefully I will get somewhere close to where I want to be!
