Demonstration
Finally a demonstration! I’m not doing it very well yet, but it’s still early stages. I feel pretty good about using this in an exhibition setting now. One of my early concerns was of course that it would be too hard for the public to interact with the piece themselves. I sort of envision two separate paths from now on. The first is the piece as planned with the conch shaped sculpture used by me in performances. The second is three cones (directional sound domes) with headsets hanging from the ceiling over small chairs. An assistant will be there to help people moist the sensor pads and put the gear on. The application will initially run through a short training session for 1 minute (I’ve already programmed this :-) so that the user’s brain can be profiled correctly. Afterwards it should be pretty straight froward to try and control the sound.

Anyway, I'm looking forward to hearing more about this project, let me know if there is a presentation in San Diego CA, or some place near by, i would love to check this out in person.
Cheers
The possibilities are many. I'm working on controlling as many as 10 different aspects of the sound right now, as well as linking sound characteristics to emotional state of mind (already implemented). Further research will go into directly using the Herz frequency read-out form the sensor to generate sound waves.
