Block diagram of the hardware setup for my instrument. The 5 main components are 1) a computer, 2) gestural controllers (from right to left, JazzMutant Lemur, Wacom drawing tablet and a contact microphone connected to the wacom), 3) software running on the computer, 4) a multichannel audio I/O interface, 5) sound system including console, routing to a surround speaker array and input from microphones on acoustic instruments and actors.
Block diagram of hardware/software organization. White blocks represent software components whereas images represent inputs and outputs. Top left: Microphone input is analyzed in order to inform sound synthesis; top right: gestural controllers are mapped in order to control sound synthesis in real-time; top center: a contact microphone is used to make my instrument playable like a percussion instrument.
