A few years ago I started using wood boards from mill waste to build resonators. I then wanted to experiment with other ideas and started developing wood touch interfaces: haptic instruments available to playful sonic explorations, using touch and gestures on reclaimed pieces of wood, barks and plywood. I find the touch boards to be a great tool to allow a certain kind of...
We finally started our research and experiments with the interactive floor. After testing and experimenting for sometime with a variety of smaller settings, this is finally a prototype for a possibly larger floor and walls system that I look forward to developing with Josh Martin, and sharing it with everyone in the near future. ...
Noise is the alter ego, Ianus Bifrons. The philosopher’s stone: a golden stone is still a stone.

Emotionality is immanent; expression is definitely linked to the instant, instant is unpredictably transcendent. Dedicated to...
Testing a prototype floor/touch board, to use with dancers in a future project I’ll expand this to a 5’x8′ floor with at least 2 piezos to drive Max/MSP, and possibly run multichannel audio out in 8 wood resonators. It should be pretty fun and engaging both to use and watch/listen. …hopefully sometime in a not too distant future : ) …with the blippoo box...
