"Oh Heck Yeah"
summary
Kinect depth tracking drives three bespoke two-player body-controlled games built in Processing/Java with open-source code and WAV soundtracks on GitHub. A $200,000 ArtPlace America grant funds a downtown street-arcade rollout on three corners over 16 nights, and the project attracts 30–40k players, proves games can prompt strangers to meet, and later tours to corporate and arts sites. Assets include Colorado Symphony soundtrack and instructions to run and remix the code.
