Wii Loop Machine

We have previously mentioned several fun uses of the Wiimote with your Mac. The Wii Loop Machine by Yann Seznec is nifty little application for controlling music loops (similar to those in Garageband) using the Wiimote. You can select different loops with the buttons and control playback by moving the Wiimote around in space. As you can see in the video, it becomes a kind of Wii-dance, and despite being rather dorky also looks sort of fun. All of this is made possible by aka.objects developed by Masayuki Akamatsu, which also works with the Apple Remote and other devices as well.

After seeing this for the first time, I couldn't help but think that next we need a Wiimote controlled Mac theremin!
