The SIGGRAPH 98 Interactive Dance Club

Imagine a dance club where instead of being just slaves to the rhythm, members of the audience can influence the music, lighting, and visuals. The SIGGRAPH 98 Interactive Dance Club is a demonstration of how music and visual media are converging into a new form of interactive entertainment. It will be a place at SIGGRAPH 98 to let loose, dance, and play! What will the collective mind of you and others at the SIGGRAPH 98 Interactive Dance Club create? There's only one way to find out. See you there!
