OTTO allows the manipulation of audio samples in real time by means of a strong physical interaction, supported by clear visual feedback. The controls use the electronic music technique called Beat Slicing—cutting a rhythmic audio sample into little pieces which can then be rearranged in different ways to change the flow of the beat and create rhythmic sections which unfold during the performance.

Sketch a tune is a web application for an interactive radio community with a social network mind-set.

Music is the core of the project especially as Sketch a tune becomes a bridge between us and our emotions. [More]
