I WANT ONE OF THAT!!!!!

That's really wild! Now I KNOW I want some microtonal instrument of my own. Incidentally, how may I obtain the device used here? And what is it, even? : ]

Awesome sonoritieses.

I'm enjoying your approach and sensibilities. Just curious, what did you study at uni? Are you familiar with any specialized programmes in electro-acoustic music, other than the one offered at De Montfort (IOCT) in Leicester? Thanks.

Yes, the overtone series is the acoustic harmonic series.

Bravo Maestro BRILLIANT!!!

Now that is actually realy cool. What is it? Does it have a simple schematic?

Gorgeous little piece of kit, that. Wanted one as soon as I heard the first flourish.
On a more serious note, your phrasing is very interesting. Towards the end there are some especially intriguing rhythmic figures that remind me very much of sweeping arpeggios on a guitar. (about 1:18)

Thanks! Yep, this be them series of overtones! It's an attempt to explore this valuable scale so often suppressed on commercial instruments. That interface is very touch sensitive (like a cracklebox) so the random sweeping flourishes were almost unintended, but playing a 'wrong note' isn't a problem in the harmonic/overtone series, since every interval is naturally related. Check out Lamonte Young's Well Tuned Piano if just intonation piques thine ears...
