It is played on two instruments, a bass and tenor ‘eel.’ Based on the Medieval instrument called the serpent, sliding gestures from the body power a microcontroller-based synthesizer and allow the performers to inflect some of the traditional expressive affordances on electronic music.

Awesome!
I tried these at the MIT Media Lab a couple of weeks ago, they’re indeed very nice. There’s all the needed component here for some really interesting acoustic electronic instruments (getting a more powerful resonator, and using some more advanced electronics could be two next steps, for example). Great job, and Noah’s a cool guy too :).
