Waiting For Judge Number Three from Atomic Shadow on Vimeo.
http://www.atomicshadow.com/A semi improvisation featuring processed audio from two reel to reel machines (I think of them as sequencers), sine wave generators, ring modulators, tape echo, various effects, and a dash of reverb.
This piece is in honor of the OraMix contest held by the Science Museum in London. My entry can be heard at...

Skot Wiedmann of Motus Mavis Featured in Yahoo Design Expo
Innovative Tech Design at Yahoo Design Expo
Skot Wiedman comes in at 2:33 with his gestural touch controller. If you are familiar with his work, see the Motus Mavis label below and of course his website MotusMavis.com. He brought us the Star Shaped Modular featured in NAMM 2009 and one of my favorite knob styles that resembles a buzz saw imo. See the label below for more including video of the star shaped modular. Yahoo Design Expo video description: "A handheld cube that lets you browse your Flickr photos. A headset that uses brainwaves to control how fast a bicyclist pedals. And Megaphone, a game that lets users play against each in public spaces with their mobile phones. Those were some of the concepts on display at the recent Yahoo Design Expo. Originally conceived by Joy Mountford when she was at Apple, the event brings together out-of-the-box design ideas by students from around the world. In this video, the Mercury News speaks with Mountford, now vice president of User Experience Design at Yahoo, and demos some of the projects."
