Two LED instruments that find each other. Apart, each one plays on its own. Snap them together and they become one audio-reactive instrument.
A six-axis robot arm, rebuilt closed loop. Every joint knows where it is, so motion I design can play back on a real machine. The drawing is made live from the official Arctos model.
A swept-volume display. Two LED panels spin back to back fast enough that light hangs in the air as voxels you can walk around. My build of James Brown’s open-source Multivox, the Vortex version.
A real-time engine that runs on its own or as the bridge between creative tools. It routes and translates every signal a live setup uses, listens to sound, makes visuals in its own workspace, maps them onto surfaces and prepares jobs for the 3D printer and the laser, all in one portable app that works offline. The Signal output on the home page comes from its visual workspace.
The home of RICO, Real-time Integration Control Operations. It shows what RICO connects, module by module with real uses for each, walks through the three steps from plugging in to performing, tells the story of the Phantom Performer installation and hands you the download. A green and black terminal look with live WebGL graphics, built from scratch.
An analog Telecaster turned into a MIDI and OSC controller. Every string has its own pickup at the bridge, so each one is read on its own, while the normal guitar signal stays untouched.
