Tenori-On is on my Christmas list.
I don't know if many of you remember a certain game that came out a few years ago for the Nintendo DS called Electroplankton. It was so damn awesome. The main idea of the game was to take control of different "plankton" who had a different musical sound, and technique. Through using them in different sequences and loops you could make a piece of music that could be changed and would evolve as you played with the different plankton. Honestly, hours of fun. Turns out the creator of the game, Toshio Iwai, also works for the Music and Human Interface Group. Toshio has developed a musical interface instrument that has allot of the same ideas and engines as Electroplankton had. Its called the Tenori-On and launched in London a few months ago. If your reading this, Santa Claus, please bring me one.
