The outcome of this endeavour will be situated anywhere between musical instrument and ritualistic artefact of cacophony. When playing the sound tool, the movement of the … Continue reading An exercise in muscle powered sound synthesis The post An exercise in muscle powered sound synthesis appeared first on PIFcamp.
