scoreLight - Musical Laser

The scoreLight project by Alvaro Cassinelli, Daito Manabe and Yusaku Kuribara is an amazing piece of technology since it changes the way we would normally interact with a system. Simply draw some lines on the paper or cup your hands to interact with scoreLight. It reminds me of the the freedom that the Drawdio project allowed.

"scoreLight is a prototype musical instrument capable of generating sound in real time from the lines of doodles as well as from the contours of three-dimensional objects nearby (hands, dancer’s silhouette, architectural details, etc). There is no camera nor projector: a laser spot explores the shape as a pick-up head would search for sound over the surface of a vinyl record - with the significant difference that the groove is generated by the contours of the drawing itself. The light beam follows these countours in the very same way a blind person uses a white cane to stick to a guidance route on the street."
