"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."
