WIINSTRUMENT

You also released a WiiFlash API. What do you suggest laptoprockers to use it for?

"If you have a designer at hand, ask him/her to create some cool visuals for your next gig. Or create an interactive music installation. Or just design one yourself! If you need some inspiration, watch out for wiiflash.org: They have released a freeware Wii library for Flash long before our API, and there are already some applications available—but only for Windows. Together with wiiflash.org, we're working on a compatible version of our MoteDaemon API to enable developers to deploy their Flash apps on Windows and on Mac at the same time, without extra effort."

You guys must be real wiizkids! Do you have a Wii from day One? What do you like best about it?

"The idea of creating an application for the Wii that is suitable for real percussion music came up during some sessions with Rayman Raving Rabbids, one of the first games available for the Wii.

"We've really been early adopters in this case, but we don't regret it. Till today, we think that the Wii remote is the coolest input device for gaming ever released.

"We do our best to turn it into one of the coolest musical instruments available."
