The Jam-O-Drum was first conceived in 1998 at Interval Research to support audiovisual collaboration by playing on drum pads embedded in a shared tabletop surface. This device allows people to come together and play with interactive musical elements whether they have prior knowledge or not.
It was made using MIDI with realtime video and computer graphic projections.
The Jam-O-Drum Pong is an extension of this research which, using the same elements created different versions of it. It kind of reminds me of air hockey too which I love! Players spin their disk to control paddle movement and block other players from scoring. To see a clip of it in action click here.
