Popping on Marshmallow is a sound installation that allows the audience to interact with the responding graphics created in Processing IDE. Each of the balls has its unique moving speed and a sound list, consisting of sound clips in the same timbre but different pitch. The sound is triggered randomly by the contact of the audience's hands of his/her body gesture through Kinect. The big blue ball has a slow mellow pad sound, the yellow one has a fruity sound at the middle speed, and the pink ball has the quickest and sharpest sound. The smallest blue ball which always moves horizontally, serves as a bonus to be more challenging to touch.  

I made this work because of my enthusiasm for music education for children and music lovers. I always think that music is for everyone, not just professional performers or composers. This project's gamification performance design enables people to perform music with body movements easily, which also helps children improve hand-eye coordination and the sense of music.
