Idea
The author created a tool for reproducing the synesthetic equivalent of the distance between objects in space in a form of a physical interface that playback sound with different characteristics. The author strived for creating an artifact that provides playful interaction and easy development and updating.
Long Description
Author decided to embody the musical instrument in the form of a sci-fi gun. It became a fierce means of Sonic Fiction in the form of a console gamepad, attaching an interface to the basic concept of pointing at the target. It uses the Klangstrom board platform and incoming digital and analog signals to generate and process a real-time audio. It gets data from a laser distance sensor (LIDAR) as well as analog input via 6 buttons and a pressure sensor for triggering and changing individual sound parameters - frequency, modulation, filtering. Gives the possibility to modify the signal processing settings to obtain a different sound character within Arduino environment.
