story

• In 2012, I created a simple installation called Magic Keyboard (https://vimeo.com/45154003) with vvvv: a Windows-based toolkit. The project was only running on my laptop at the time and wasn't ready to be opened on any device.
• In 2015, looking back at the project, I felt it would be great to make it available to anyone on earth owning a projector and a keyboard.
• So I learnt some JS and ported it to the web.

concept

• Keybright is just a simple tangible interface involving an input (keyboard) and a magical output (light letters with physical behavior).

• It is also a platform where developpers can develop and propose their own games with this unfamiliar input.

• My goal is to build a DIY happy alternative to existing videogames with a physical/digital experience at home rather than just a 16/9 screen.

this repository

• It holds all the code and files for the web-platform keybright.net.
• It is open to anyone to fork it and improve it, wether it'd be for the core or to add new games.
