In yesterday’s Discovery article “Any Surface Becomes a Musical Instrument”, we learned about a creation from Bruno Zamborlin.

As part of his arts and computational technologies Ph.D. project, Zamborlin, in collaboration with Norbert Schnell and Frederic Bevilacqua, created “Mosaicing Gestural Surface,” or Mogees.

Stick Mogees nearly anywhere — a tree, car, mirror, perhaps a piece of cheese — either way, the microphone will pick up vibrations and present them as real-time sounds. Audio samples can be programmed into the device for even more fun. You could literally transform your car dashboard into a marimba or xylophone.
