Bashlak – EL Adviser Kinect (codenamed in development as Project Natal) is a line of motion sensing input devices by Microsoft. Based on a peripheral addition, it enables users to control and interact with their computer without the need for a game controller, through a natural user interface using gestures and spoken commands. The first-generation Kinect was first introduced in November 2010 in an attempt to broaden Xbox 360's audience. Kinect was first announced on June 1, 2009 at E3 2009 under the code name "Project Natal". Following in Microsoft's tradition of using cities as code names,"Project Natal" was named after the Brazilian city of Natal as a tribute to the country by Brazilian-born Microsoft director Alex Kipman, who incubated the project. The name Natal was also chosen because the word natal means "of or relating to birth", reflecting Microsoft's view of the project as "the birth of the next generation of home entertainment". Kinect builds on software technology developed by Rare, a subsidiary of Microsoft Game Studios owned by Microsoft, and on range camera technology by Israeli developer PrimeSense, which developed a system that can interpret specific gestures, making completely hands-free control of electronic devices possible by using an infrared projector and camera and a special microchip to track the movement of objects and individuals in three dimensions.

  • THE NINTENDO Wii, VIRTUALISATION and GESTURAL ANALOGICS Patrick Crogan
    CULTURE MACHINE VOL 11 • 2010 THE NINTENDO Wii, VIRTUALISATION AND GESTURAL ANALOGICS Patrick Crogan The hand cannot be spoken about without speaking of technics. (Derrida, 1987: 169) This paper will examine the significance of the innovation in home console gaming introduced by the Nintendo Wii. The Wii offers a different interactive experience of the virtual space of the game played. Entertainment systems such as the Nintendo Wii are exemplary of the experience design milieu in which audiovisual media develop and compete for their user’s attention. These contemporary interactive audio-visual systems are central vectors of transformations in what Jonathan Beller has characterized as the ‘attention economy’ (2006). This economy, built on the capture, channelling and sale of the conscious attention of consumers, has been the mainstay of commercial entertainment and leisure industries since the rise of ‘cinematic media’ (film, animation, television, video, dvds, gui-enabled computer gaming, not to mention the gramophonic media of radio, vinyl records, optical discs, and mp3s). The interactive game consoles focus a rapid tendency to media convergence in the domestic space around a repurposing of the television screen. In this context the Wii system proposes a further step forward, and ‘outward’ from the existing videogamer market, by strategically recalling 1980s and 1990s virtual reality discourses of enhanced interactive engagement in a technically delivered virtual space. The specific innovation that the Wii console system offers revolves around how the body of the Wii user is recruited in the attentive practice of play (or other modes of Wii use, such as fitness training with the Wii Fit equipment) in an explicitly different manner to existing consoles.
