"The reactable, is a state-of-the-art multi-user electro-acoustic
music instrument with a tabletop tangible user interface. Several
simultaneous performers share complete control over the instrument by
moving physical artefacts on the table surface and constructing
different audio topologies in a kind of tangible modular synthesizer
or graspable flow-controlled programming language.
The instrument was developed by a team of digital luthiers under the
direction of Dr. Sergi Jordà. The "Interactive Sonic Systems" team is
working in the Music Technology Group within the Audiovisual
Institute at the Universitat Pompeu Fabra in Barcelona Spain. Its
main activities concentrate on the design of new musical interfaces,
such as tangible music instruments and musical applications for
mobile devices."
