"The Opportunity: Forging a path into the future of Music

The time has arrived! We are making the first Mi.Mu gloves available to people who want to work with us to shift the paradigm of how music is made and performed. This Kickstarter campaign has been designed to take us from where we are now, having created a self-funded, elaborate, and wildly successful gestural music system with and for Imogen Heap, to finalising a design that can be open-sourced, allowing everyone access to the power of glove.

Why Gloves for Music?

Most of us on our small team are musicians who are tired of being stuck behind computer screens, keyboards, faders, knobs, and buttons to make our music. We feel there could be a better way that is more like the experiences we have with traditional instruments: using the dexterity and mobility of the human body.

What Exactly Can the Gloves Do?

The gloves capture the movements and postures of your hands. Our software allows this information to be mapped to musical control messages which can then be easily routed to your favourite music software."

They are developing with 3.party stuff like: Ableton Live, Pro Tools, Logic Pro or Max/MSP or plugins such as Kontakt, Omnisphere and more.

@ Evorax

Obviously more for performers and people that love to use their muscles.
Anyway, I like it to be realized.
Thanks for your recognition guys/gyals.
