This prototype interface was specifically designed to be used by multiple users at once, which is an interesting implication of multi-touch interfaces.

Initially based on only mouse and keyboard interaction and single-user oriented interaction paradigms, it now provides multi-user oriented alternative interaction methods thanks to the rapid improvements in technology. However, the technology providing the user [...]

The O-Bow is a bow controller consisting of an optical flow sensor [...]

Today The Guardian brings us details on Michael Zev Gordon’s new piece, Allele. The piece uses the human genome as source material and is being debuted on July 9.

It’s been a delicate path to tread, and my approach has been shaped by seeing genes as simultaneously physical matter and things of extraordinary wonder. Humans [...]

Eric Archer presents an interesting drive around New York City, where light is being translated into sound.

Tectonic is a sound sculpture created in real time by earthquakes as they occur across the globe. A [...]

In fact, this particular instrument bears a striking resemblance to gestural instruments from the 1980s, in the way that the distance between the two controllers acts as a sound parameter. [...]

I showed up at Trent’s house for the first day of recording and [...]
