On October 29, 2011 I Skyped into the Pacific Northwest Synth Fest from my studio in Boulder. In this photo you can see I was being projected in the room and there was a laptop under the projection so I could see and hear the audience take questions. I presented on Percussa AudioCubes and performed a few songs. The laptop gives you a sense of scale for the projection size. I've been working on my streaming set up so that I can broadcast high fidelity audio, hear my rig in my headphones, plus hear the other side of the conversation in my headphones as well. It all worked great!
Matrixsynth captured the last 15 minutes of my talk on his iPhone 4s. A majority of the talk is on the technical detail of using Percussa AudioCubes so to spare you from the technical details I went ahead and placed a copy of the video bookmarked to start at a musical performance of the song “I Can See Them” from the album I Hear Your Signals. You can of course start from the beginning of the video to catch the talk.
I actually started the talk with a performance of “First Orbit” from the same album. I don’t have a copy of the footage from the talk at Synth Fest, but I did USTREAM a sound check of the song earlier that weekend.
Before and after the talk, I was interacting with festival goes in the “petting zoo” room where there were all sorts of demos going on. I answered questions on AudioCubes.

In this photo I’m playing a new song called “Control Zone” using a Moog Etherwave Theremin (pitch-to-MIDI) and a single AudioCube to control virtual synthesizers with 6 dimensions of spatial control.
