"Serge Custom Shop Panel + Field Recordings + Eventide Space Reverb.

The Serge provided a kind of "electronic heartbeat", which inspired me to pair up with some iPhone recordings I did walking around the Pike Street Market last year - pics from the same time/walkthrough."

Rainboard: Damp Shoes

Uploaded by shiverware on Feb 25, 2012

"This video is an original composition and performance (David Gerhard) using the Rainboard. The Rainboard is a DIY dynamic isomorphic keyboard. It can interface the Musix iOS app in order to change layouts and adjust settings. As well, it can be played on its own after a layout is set.

Rainboard: How it works

Uploaded by shiverware on Feb 25, 2012

"The Rainboard is an isomorphic musical keyboard with built in LEDs for rapid layout changing via the iOS app Musix and functions as a standard midi device so it can be hooked up with the synth of your choice. As well, it has velocity sensing and pitch bend. Brett Park describes how the hardware is all connected.

Richard Lainhart Memorial Tribute - Mar 4 on UStream

As most of you that come to the site know, Richard Lainhart passed away on December 30, 2011. He was often featured here on MATRIXSYNTH and was extremely respected in the synth community. His wife Caroline Meyers wrote in to let me know his memorial will be streamed on March 4th on Ustream here. I'll put another post up on March 4th, but do mark the date. "The event will include music, video, remembrances and a performance of one of Richard's last compositions -- a live improvisation by a dozen musicians while watching Richard's film 'History of the Future.'" Below is a photostream that will be up prior to the event. I opted to grab the screen shot above for the archives.
