Graphite Sequencer Makes Tangible Turntable Music

[display_podcast]

The Graphite Sequencer is an art piece that explores turning a record player into a tangible interface for sequencing music:

Disc are coded with graphite, which conducts electricity. Two wires touch the paper discs as they spin.

The wires are connected to a simple tone generator.

When a line is drawn across the disk, connecting the two wires, a tone is heard. The quality of the line affects te sound. For example, if the line is thick, more current can pass over it, creating a lower tone.
