In my wanderings, I have come across a brand-new musical instrument, called the Reactable. This instrument is:
"...a collaborative electronic music instrument with a tabletop tangible multi-touch interface. Several simultaneous performers share complete control over the instrument by moving and rotating physical objects on a luminous round table surface. By moving and relating these objects, representing components of a classic modular synthesizer, users can create complex and dynamic sonic topologies, with generators, filters and modulators, in a kind of tangible modular synthesizer or graspable flow-controlled programming language."
Here are some videos of this instrument in action:
DEMO #1:
DEMO#2:
And an improvisation performed by the inventors:
If this imstrument becomes available to the general public, you can be assured that the person behind Ariane & Nataya will be one of the first owners!!!
