# RGB pressure sensitive Monome
-
One of my first projects at [CNMAT](cnmat.berkeley.edu) was a collaboration with Adrian Freed. Our goal was to build upon ideas present in the Monome, which has the limitation of on/off status for button interactions.
One way to circumvent this is to augment button toggles with pressure so that you simultaneously have pressure in one dimension, and a button with LED feedback in another. This idea can also be seen captured in newer devices like the Keith McMillen Instruments QuNeo, which has a similar topology, but implemented with MIDI. Instead of leaving the colorspace at a single LED, we also wanted each LED to have a uniquely addressable/showable color. Essentially the project became an RGB pressure sensitive Monome. Adrian had already worked out the tricky bits with resistive fabrics he had been experimenting with, and asked me to get the multiplexing and Arduino code set up. This project led into a research paper about the various technics and affordances beyond a standard Monome device.

Cullen Miller invited me to perform music. I utilized one of my early modular setups for a solo performance.
David Kanaga of the [Software Label](http://www.softwarelabel.net/) performed the MYST soundtrack live, which was more than a little entertaining. I also had the chance to meet Madalyn Merkey for the first time, who put on a great performance with MaxMSP.

I was invited a second time to perform music at the Finite quarterly. This time was more involved, and took a bit more time to set up. I played after hours in the dark. After Rene Hell and EasySimple (simple) performed, [Gabriel Dunne](http://gabrieldunne.com/) and [Cullen Miller](http://pointlinesurface.com) performed with a live A/V set that they designed with bespoke software.

I was invited a third time to perform music at the Finite quarterly, this time at Gray Area. This particular performance was more ambient and textural, and I opened for the night. It was a pleasure to perform alongside [Jan Jelinek](https://faitiche.de/t/artists/janjelinek), a long-time interest of mine. [Scy1e](https://scy1e.bandcamp.com/) played an excellent spatialized set involving electronics from Peter Blasser's lab, and [Cullen Miller](http://pointlinesurface.com/) collaborated with [David Last](https://www.facebook.com/pg/lastfaithstudio/) in a dance set.

-# Infinite Ear
+# Infinite Ear at the Bergen Assembly
Tarek Atoui partnered with [Council](http://www.council.art) to create a masterful installation in the Sentral Badet community space of Bergen, Norway. My role was to set up the 0.9 instrument, calibrate it to the room, develop the software further with Tarek leading up to rehearsals, and train people on it through subsequent days of the exhibition prep. We worked with professional musicians and newcoming performers alike, many of them deaf persons. It was an eye opening experience to see the ways in which something of my own creation could be used to teach people how to create abstract music for the first time in their life. There were onsite interpreters to translate between sign and spoken language, and many interesting aspects of the space and partitions of the installation to explore and engage in as the time went by.
