Palinopsia v1.1.0 — the "played by the room" release.

Embodied control, sound in both directions, and the instrument reaching out into the space around it (projectors, DMX, MIDI clock).

Highlights

  • Body: embodied control (new full-page mode, key B). Opt-in webcam → MediaPipe Hands + Pose + Face + Silhouette into a live body bus. Route any tracked feature into a modulator, or author gesture rules (single gesture or a two-gesture combo, with per-gesture sensitivity) that fire actions and a /body/<name> OSC bang. Includes silhouette zone occlusion (cover a screen region with your shadow) and presence enter/leave triggers for installations.
  • Colour ↔ sound. An audio noisiness feature and vision hue + saturation features, so sound can tint the picture and the picture's colour can drive any Sonify parameter. The Sequencer's Climat tag takes a "from picture" suggestion off the live palette.
  • Installation / kiosk mode — boot a session fullscreen with crash self-heal and an exit hatch; custom composition size and multi-projector span.
  • Light output — ArtNet/DMX + WLED: push the picture's colour into the room.
  • MIDI output — 24-PPQN clock + transport and a thru/merge path (drive an Ableton Move over USB); the Randomize dice, master-FX chain and session buttons are MIDI-learnable.
  • Audio input monitoring / passthrough with separate Sonify and monitor levels, and an adaptive USB-noise denoiser.
  • Performance sub-tab: per-section GPU / CPU / RAM load.

Full notes in CHANGELOG.md. Cut after a code + security audit (camera-lifecycle, mirror-mode and race fixes; opsia-media:// hardening).
