And I thought it was the LSD. ;)

So they do look very promising.  Instead of having a linear relationship (Add, Minus, Divide, Multiply, blah, blah), you can create more complex non-linear relationships - slide A->B and get a complex set of motions on the slave - without the complex VK-type setup (as I call it).  As you show, a set of linear values (0,0.3,0.6,1.0) can affect the slave using variable values (0,-12,-12,0) and thus impart a more interesting relationship when the slave's motion isn't just linear.  You could do linear->sin (sine waves), linear->exponential, linear->pseudo-random (very pseudo as the periodicity would be short unless you can specify a large range of valueKeys).

Now all you need to do is graph plotting to make whatever relationship and give enough points for constraints.  As you note, the interpolation appears to be spline-based.  Wonder if there will be a set of 'lin/con/spl' type interpolation specifiers to vary this?

Thanks for the rigorous work thus far!
