The Dancingularity is a synaesthetic musical/visual electronic dance party event featuring custom game hardware and software. Partygoers dancing on a giant pressure-sensitive floor pad influence the projected visuals in realtime. While attendees dance to tracks from kokoromi's DJs, they orchestrate interactive moments of dance gameplay which are seamlessly synchronized with the music. The "Dance Master" - a role similar to a VJ - manages the game's crowd-interactive behaviors in addition to the onscreen visuals. How it works: Hacked DDR mats are combined into a giant dance floor. Any number of partygoers can dance on the giant interactive mat. The dancers on the mat influence the on-screen visuals by stepping on the integrated pressure pads. At certain moments in the music (the "breaks"), the DJ and DM trigger a special game mode which lets the dancers "build up" dance energy with especially enthusiastic movement. Each time the dancers succeed in "filling the energy bar," they are rewarded visually and musically with a special effect called THE DANCINGULARITY – and at the same time the DJ and DM are being served by the DRINKULARITY: a special robot mixer that offers them a tasty cocktail. Fuel for more party!
