bacchus ![]() |
Bacchus is a kinetic sound sculpture, built by Jim Murphy, intended as an examination of the use of mechatronic components as a means of extracting new sounds from common objects.
|
Bacchus Triptych ![]() |
Bacchus Triptych, built by Jim Murphy, is an outgrowth of the bacchus kinetic sculpture designed to allow direct human interaction.
|
Kritaanjli ![]() |
Kritaanjli is a mechatronic harmonium built by Jim Murphy and Ajay Kapur.
|
MechBass ![]() |
MechBass, built by James McVay, is a 4-stringed modular mechatronic bass guitar. Pitch shifts are accomplished with stepper motor-based linear motion systems, and picking events can be performed with variable loudness.
|
Mutor ![]() |
Mutor is a mechatronic sound-object, designed by Mo H. Zareei, in which the sound of a DC motor is controlled and manipulated, in terms of frequency, timbre, and amplitude, through mechatronics and microcontroller programming. | Nudge ![]() |
Nudge, built by Jim Murphy, is a mechatronic drum beater designed to retain the simplicity of traditional solenoid mechatronic drum beaters but to afford composers additional expressive parameters.
|
Rasper ![]() |
Rasper, built by Mo H. Zareei, is a mechatronic noise-intoner in which mechatronics and microcontroller programming are used in order to highlight the audiovisual nosies of urban technologies.
|
Rippler ![]() |
Rippler is a mechatronic sound sculpture, created by Mo H. Zareei, in which a sheet of steel is put onto a rippling motion using linear actuators.
|
Swivel 2 ![]() |
Swivel 2, built by Jim Murphy and James McVay, is a six-module robotic slide guitar.
|
Chronome ![]() |
Chronome is a monome-inspired Grid, with Color and Pressure Sensitivity built by Owen Vallis and Jordan Hochenbaum. | pyxis minor ![]() |
pyxis minor is is a novel instrument / sequencer / synthesizer developed by Timothy Barraclough. |
ESuling ![]() |
Esuling, built by Jason Erksine, is an Indonesian hyperinstrument modified with sensors and a microchip. | EZither ![]() |
EZither, built by Blake Johnston, is an electronically-augmented, bowed zither. |
Kontrol ![]() |
Kontrol, designed by Jon He and Kameron Christopher, is a hand interface built to extract the intricate expressivity of performers of various performative backgrounds.
|
MagneticTapes ![]() |
MagneticTapes is a custom built interface for musical expression built by Bridget Johnson. |
mHzKontrol ![]() |
mHzKontrol is a custom-built MIDI controller built by Mo H. Zareei. | Modulome ![]() |
Modulome is a modular, wireless interface collection based on the Monome and Arduinome projects built by Timothy Barraclough. |
tactile.space ![]() |
tactile.space is a multi-touch performance interface for live sound diffusion built by Bridget Johnson.
|
touch.modular ![]() |
touch.modular is an interactive multi-touch synthesis program built by Bridget Johnson.
|
xingyue ![]() |
xingyue, built by Jon He, is hand gesture recognition for thumb, middle, and ring fingers.
|
Chronus_2.0 ![]() |
Developed by Bridget Johnson, Chronus_2.0 is a custom built physical spatial controller designed to be easily incorporated into an electronic musicians performance configuration. |
Artifice ![]() |
Artifice, by Mo H. Zareei. | Brutalist Noise Ensemble ![]() |
The Brutalist Noise Ensemble, by Mo H. Zareei. |
complex ![]() |
complex, by Mo H. Zareei. | Gradient ![]() |
Gradient, by Mo H. Zareei. |
Immanence ![]() |
Immanence, by Paul Mathews and Timothy Barraclough, is a multimedia installation, designed to provide an unsettling experience through use of non-tactile sensors, reactive moving parts and live sampling of sound. | Nebular ![]() |
Nebular, by Bridget Johnson and Blake Johnston, is a performance piece featuring the EZither and tactile.space. |
Orbits ![]() |
Orbits, by Timothy Barraclough, is an interactive installation for Modulome interfaces. | Rasping Music ![]() |
Rasping Music is an audiovisual piece using four mechatronic instruments, in which phase-shifting patterns of the mechanically produced noise are accompanied by synchronous bursts of white lights, creating a hybrid state in a trade-off between irregularity of noise and regularity of metric rhythms. |
yamoto-damashii / gendruwo ![]() |
yamoto-damashii / gendruwo, by Bridget Johnson and Jason Erskine, is a performance piece featuring the Esuling and MagneticTapes.
