Its about finding new ways to interact with sound in computers. About creating digital instruments that visually explain the processes behind. Avoiding traditional computer metaphors such as the score, or the timeline. Exploring new processes. Creating new interfaces. We developed our software with the aim to be downloaded and installed on the user&Mac226;s computer, but we've got online versions for users to have a first taste of the ideas we are working with. (with cut down in fuctionality because of shockwave security issues). We are also experimenting with the use of non conventional interfaces and devices such as touch screens, game pads or PDAs.

We?ve been developing the ixi software as applications or instruments for people to use for creating music. We are researching and experimenting with visual interfaces for triggering musical structures and we collaborate with musicians when we design and test our products. So one of the main aspects of our work is to create new ways of making music, as new interfaces can open up spaces where quite original ideas can pop up.
