Ableton live controller....

"Three units, which are resembling standard record players, translate concentric visual patterns into control signals for further processing in any music software. The rotation of the discs, each holding three tracks, can be synced to a sequencer.
In cooperation with the sounddesigner/ producer Yannick Labbé of TRICKSKI fame, we developed three unique discs, each controlling one track of an Ableton Live Set exclusively made for the Event. The show was supported by a set of realtime generated visuals, running on a 25m wide LED wall.

Coffee, coffee!

Coffee. COffee! CoffEE? Here is the mythical "Coffee Machine", one of the early favourite exhibits. It's an early voice synthesizer that is limited to the word "coffee". The exhibit has two knobs, one controls the bass/treble while the other one controls whether the word is pronounced as a question or an exclamation. The electronics were built by Philips in The Netherlands.
