Tarek Atoui, THE T1

As part of the project WITHIN, Tarek Atoui has developed nine new instruments and a sound massage kit which expanded notions of hearing, beyond orality and are activated on the occasion of concerts and exhibitions.

T1 is a MIDI keyboard whose sounds can be heard in a tactile way. This controller easily connects to any type of musical software to play and process sounds the player choses. It can also be used as a speaker that allows to perceive up to ve sounds in the fingers and the palm of the hand. 1
