Thanks for that link. Very cool. Has anyone here ever played with that Jazz Mutant Lemur thing that Cycling '74 distributes? Is it somewhere along the same lines? As a computer guy, I think the control surface and apps are awesome. As a musician, I kinda want something that I can pound, blow or pluck, something that fights back a little... I get that Han's invention is pressure-sensitive, but that's probably not be enough to give it the expressivity that, I believe, can only come from physical resistance. I remember being really impressed by Buchla's Thunder, but it never seemed to me that someone sliding their fingers along a surface had much inherent drama (okay, so I'm a ham. I even hate sitting down when I play guitar in front of people, even though I'm about 15% better in that position). Buchla's Lightning, OTOH, had some real pizzazz (still no resistance, though - don't know if those who played it much felt that as a limitation or not) Warren Sirota www.warrensirota.com See you at the Loopfest! > -----Original Message----- > From: Paul Mimlitsch [mailto:pmimlitsch@mac.com] > Sent: Saturday, September 23, 2006 3:07 PM > To: Loopers-Delight@loopers-delight.com > Subject: computer interface > > > think of the music/loop manipulation applications: > > http://www.ted.com/tedtalks/tedtalksplayer.cfm?key=j_han&flash > Enabled=1 >
