What great fun it is to develop a new instrument. The great part for us that it came out very close to what we originally had planned, specially on the hardware part.

Like any new device, we are expecting several fixes until we get to show it at the University of York, where we should be able to play something interesting.

On that front, we have started to code the pd patch that will drive the audio fun coming from the 8 flex sensors and 3 accelerometer axis. At the present moment, we are testing which kind of modulation would be fun to put into it. Maybe we end of with a few to choose from, plus some audio effects.

Finally there's a spark that appeared in my mind of a future project, enabling some funky stage performance.

More on that on the future. More on the Trampoline next week, when things will really get rocking!

Have a great weekend everybody.
