Okay, so I am not usually into "monome + X = fun" as a formula, because it seems to me to violate the basic thrust of the monome aesthetic: minimal design. Just do a search for the various guitar-monome hybrids out there. But I make an exception here because, well, I don't know, I just found it really beautiful and moving. I like this bizaar interaction of folk instrument with postmodern controller. Enjoy, and comment. Peace
Oooo, funky. I think I dig: concept and sound of the concertinome, though the continuo-beat-what-not he programs, I'm not so keen on. I've yet to check out the other aparati, but I think I'm with you on the more minimal, "monome=fun."
