Wii Remotes As Drumsticks On Garageband?

What will they figure out next?

Some creative programmers have figured out how to use the Wii Remote and Nunchuck as drumsticks in Garageband. At first this sounds like something I would dream, but it's really pretty straightforward. Wii peripherals operate on Bluetooth, Macs use Bluetooth, so the ability to link the two is there. Someone just had to create a way to channel the Wii data into Garageband.

I have yet to try it, but it looks promising. The developers are actively trying to fix all of the bugs and there is a small community of people commenting on their experiences. If things go right, you can be drumming MIDI info into Garageband instead of clicking or tapping away. Apparently the accelerometer information is preserved, so the sound intensity increases the harder you beat. Awesome.
