ISA2020 Sessions

2.4SINK by Instruments of Things

 

Abstract

“Dance the Music” describes the novel music tech product 2.4SINK which uses multiple high-precision motion sensors and unique algorithms to control electronic instruments via a performer’s or instrumentalist’s own movements. It bridges the gap between IoT technologies and musical instruments and opens up new levels of creativity and individuality. The presentation will include live demos with a modular synthesizer and a walkthrough of all features to demonstrate usability and performance as well as potential use cases.
