MUSH works only as a mirror experience, you play by yourself. and as Alexi Shulgin says : "when it doesn't work, it's technology"

Always have a Plan B when you do telepresence art and even C,D.. that's something Graham Smith and his robots know.

Day 6 - MUSH still works as a mirror. The audience plays with the sonic sensor and a flickering image of themselves.
FM Einheit
tries MUSH. For the moment it's at least a great sound instrument.

interface so we can modify sound and video very easely.
