I highly recommend looking at some of the other youtube videos on this device.

Hmmmm…seems like he just ripped off the DM2 that has been around for like 7 YEARS! (mixman.com) Implementation is a little different thou.

Absolutely awesome! Shame there is so little information on the actual hardware and how the sensor interface is connected….

I couldn’t hear what the device was producing through the video’s background music.

agree with chris, great bit of kit (and more than just a dm2 clone), but it’s a shame luca’s keeping his cards to his chest on the details. want one.

It also looks similar to a hardware implementation of the old Spiralloops soft synth.

Nonetheless, a very nice instrument.

Well, as far as the dm2 goes (very different) or even the spiralloops instrument, obviously, part of the idea is orienting things *in a circle*. I mean, certain things make sense. I think a more reasonable question would be, why do we have so many grids and so few circles to begin with?
