near near future continues to bring fascinating alternative music controllers to our attention. This week they cover two objects that generate sound, cubes and jars:

  • loopqoob
    builds further on the idea of playing with blocks, with cubes linked to
    computer algorithmic music / synthesis for people without the motor
    skills to play instruments.
  • Piano Cubes is the oddest arpeggiator ever: it's jars filled with syrup, equipped with a mercury tilt sensor!

If you've got your own odd controller or have seen one, drop me a line.
