Build with an Accelerometer, Arduino, Processing, OSC, Ableton Live.

The first part of my software analyses the movement of the seesaw and provides information like position, endurance, regularity, intensity and beats per minute via OSC.

I created software called Influquencer, a sequencer that receives these OSC data and sends out midi signals to turn this data into music - for this installation into a simple Bum Tschack beat.

This is how the analyzed movement influences the sound:
position -> midi notes
intensity -> filter delay
regularity -> beat repeat
endurance -> rome
bpm -> song tempo

I changed the soundsets manually via iPhone / MSARemote from time to time.
