Meteor Shower is an experiment in gesture-controlled video and sound synthesis. Participants are represented as solar bodies with gravitational potential in a particle-based starfield.  Built initially as a simple responsive environment, its next incarnation will incorporate state-aware behaviour, and further explore ideas of nature/artifice by building narrative structures involving "lunar characters."

As a deployable installation, Meteor Shower holds potential as an environment for architectural installations, play spaces, and performance events – it is being designed with such flexibility in mind.
