(m)ORPH Triple Theremin ~ モーフトリプル・テルミン For live #VR performances, I created a triple theremin where the XYZ axes each are different octave of a pentatonic scale. Right hand controls the pitches of the 3 oscillators and the left hand controls volume, resonant filter, and the LFO rate of a flanger.
Real-time FX processing in the (m)ORPH #VR Performance application; controlling reverb and delay FX and resonant filters. 3D Cube FX UIs control wet/dry mix, decay/delay times, feedback, etc via RTPCs in Wwise. Allows me to live process 1 or 2 sound object at the same time while performing!
I've updated the (m)ORPH LinkTree with easy access to the free #VR apps, a playlist of videos on Youtube, and overviews of the Morph project in both English and Japanese. linktr.ee/MorphVR
@avroshk.bsky.social & I have been creating a DAW plugin called ➡️ GrainSeeker ⬅️ and we're looking for beta testers to give us some feedback! It granulates recorded or live-input audio, and then sequences those grains in 4 independent step sequencers. To give it a spin, sign up here: grainseeker.com

And here's a blurry image (from video) of my using my Tenori-On at PAX in 2009 at a @freezepopband.bsky.social concert.
Got to meet the legendary Toshio Iwai at IAMAS and he autographed my Tenori-On. His work on Electroplankton, collabs w/Sakamoto, & myriads of creative projects have been super influential for me as a creator of interactive music experiences. Looks like we're also aficionados of scarves as well :)
symbionproject.bandcamp.com/album/tryptych Symbion Project births a new sound, a tryptych of hush and swell. Each song a portal, a prism, a prison, splitting into threes like cracked glass, a theme, a thread, a ghost returning, thrice a geometry of loss and light.
Symbion Project's 12th album "TRYPTYCH" is releasing this Friday, Feb 7th on #bandcamp w/streaming, Apple Spatial, and Atmos/5.1 surround versions shortly thereafter. An instrumental album of 3 long-form songs featuring orchestral layers, french horn, Japanese koto, modular synths, and sound design.
「Hakana」は、由美さんとキャッサン・クロッカーによって制作された楽曲です。この楽曲は、Meta Quest VRヘッドセット向けの「(m)ORPH・モーフ」VR体験に収録されています。音楽は、モジュラーシンセ、サウンドデザイン、そして伝統的な日本の琴を独自に融合させたものです。このVRアプリケーションは、Meta Questストアから無料でダウンロードして体験することができます。Music by Yumi Iwaki + Kasson www.meta.com/experiences/... #ambient #ambientmusic #VR #morph #morphvr
