trampoLine

This is a musical instrument made using Arduino and software. Check out the video at the link below. It's well worth a look if you are into this sort of thing.

The main function is to mixes tones. It is controlled by pressure sensors and rubber chord. Its done in a way which allows natural movement in the control of the instrument. I can imagine it mixing colours on a projector screen, or controlling a visual effect.

Music is rhythm. Beautifully complex sound textures are
beautifully complex sound textures, providing they are not offensive to the ear. I envisage this concept working in use for the use of visual effect, but also to create background atmosphere in recorded and live music. Like surrounded by cloud in a dream. Or fire in a nightmare. To combine the control of visual and audible elements in a way where the two speak to each other and would be rather effective, and in some cases, quite possibly psychedelic. Imagine intense bass frequencies and ear plugs. Feeling the vibrations, but the sound not overwhelming.
