But you lack a guitar, and more importantly talent?

Fear not!

Finland to the rescue!

    I wonder when that technology was introduced for pop singers. Must be in the beta still, the results are pretty awful.

    EDIT:
    The team at the Telecommunications Software and Multimedia Laboratory and the Acoustics Laboratory at the Helsinki University of Technology have already developed a small orchestra of virtual instruments.

    These include a painting programme and Kick Ass Kung-Fu, which demands that the player actually performs all the moves.


    Wow, they invented the Eyetoy! Oh, wait, this is 2006, the Eyetoy has been on the market for years now.

    GDC 2006:

    The Make Art Button: Batches, Actions, and Scripts Adrian Woods
    Friday, 2:30pm — 4:30pm Visual Arts/
    2-Hour Lecture
    Overview: This session covers techniques that artists can use to decrease their iteration time and increase their creative time, including batch files and the dreaded DOS prompt, Photoshop actions and Max (or MEL) scripts.

    My old art lead was coming very close to the Holy Grail of CG, and prototypes of the Make Art Button were in the works, last time I heard. Link:

    Mojo: But which 90% of people can't actually play right. (Hint: If you're using a pick you're already wrong.)
