Perform the highly regarded Greek shadow theater! The Kinect Virtual Shadows is Kinect-controlled animation inspired by a form of Greek theater which utilizes shadows in order to awe its audience. This video by Marilena Tsouka showcases this visual eye-candy how the Kinect is adding more possibilities to performing and visual arts. In the video, the main character reflects the user’s movements through Flash. The user then is able to take hold of the performance and display great shadow theater because of the Kinect.
