While searching drum and bass related videos, I discoverd this one which shows a drummer and a bassist jammin. Beside getting impressed by the cool groove they made, I was also fascinated by the way the bassist plays the bass. Check it out, it is a click worth.

Recently I had the chance playing a xylophone for a moment. Since I have never played a xylophone, I was really impressed about this instrument. The balance between rythm and melody makes the xylophone an ideal instrument for rythmic oriented music. while searching for videos and other information about xylophone over the internet, I found this video on youtube which impressed me a lot. The most exciting part of the video is the second one which shows Ralph Heid as a 4 years old boy performing in frankfurt a.M.

create an electronic music instrument from a pump using a piezo sensor and the arduino board
The signals coming from the arduino are then converted into midi (using custom software) thus the pump cen be used as a midi input to control sound params in several audio software like ableto live, reason etc.

programming MIDI in java is fun because the built in midi package from sun provides a rich API (applicaton programming interface) for MIDI purposes. Therefore there is no more need to struggle with low level coding to open a device, connecting an device input to an output etc.

An interesting project I found over the net, Reactable, an interactive synthesizer table based on a tracking camera and a projector. The really nice thing about this project is that the tracking software is opensource and can be downloaded with the patterns at the project website, http://mtg.upf.edu/reactable/?software
