SANDBOX ACTIVITIES
Body Paint
Paint on a virtual canvas using the movements of your body to create a piece of art.

Discover the magic of what a spiral movement with your hands can create.
Webcam Piano
Become a piano virtuoso and compose music with the motion of your fingertips! Webcam Piano interprets and produces sound from your movements. Play with different musical modes and colour schemes, each representing a different emotion.
