Show HN: An online drawing tool that lets you change colors via MIDI controller
- pmoriarty 8y agoI use mididings[1], which is a set of python bindings for receiving, transforming, and sending MIDI. Using it xdotool[2], I've done things like used various MIDI controllers to send keystrokes, mouse movements, and mouse clicks to various applications that I use. You could potentially use this setup to control GIMP, Inscape, Krita, or other drawing applications.

- mikkergp 8y agoThis is pretty cool, I think in general we need more novel forms of input in computing. We've been stuck with a mice and keyboard for too long. Combining with some of the things pmoriarty mentioned, I wonder if you could make this more widely useable.
- FraKtus 8y agoThat's great! I would like to see somebody using this solution while being synchronized with the beat of the music.
