Much easier than filling the entire venue with salvia smoke.

That is awesome on so many levels.
Levels 4, 4-C, and 17 especially.

Hmm...

Microsoft chief executive officer Steve Ballmer has hinted to the BBC that he will formally support PC use of the Kinect motion controller in the near future, saying Microsoft "will support that in a formal way in the right time".

You know, for 12 or so years now every time I hear or see the words "stop making" my brain autocompletes the phrase as "that BIG FACE!!!" Scrolling through my RSS feed a few minutes ago I had to do about six doubletakes to realize I was actually reading it.

Wish I was at that show! The effects look awesome.

SmileyChewtrain - well, I did have an alternative Aphex Twin sample based FPP title in mind, but it probably would not fly here.

(someday I'll do a mega-huge Aphex Twin post and use it anyway)

Steve Ballmer ... will formally support PC use of the Kinect motion controller in the near future

Just as soon as he finishes experimenting with stretched time-lapse images of chairs being thrown across the room.

You can make his head go really big and explode.
