The Kugel tracks rotational movement of the ball and transmits the data to a laptop which interprets the movement as sound gestures. Both orientation and speed of rotation are tracked. Orientation tranlates to what particular sounds will be played back. Speed of rotation is interpreted as loudness and brightness of tone. This instrument is intended to deny the player the ability determine its playing characteristics visually, instead musical control is achieved through conceptual manipulation of the object in 3-d space. The Kugel has no top, bottom, left nor right therefore the array of sounds contained within it has no beginning, middle nor end, as might have been determined by any visual organisation.
