We are proud to present our latest project, a MultiPlayer Piano!  Currently on display at Music Center of Los Angeles’s Dorothy Chandler Pavilion for Swan Lake Oct 9-12th, 2014. #LASwans

The player piano is controlled by the proximity of the visitors. If you move towards the left, it will play faster, to the right it will play slower. The more movement, the more more the piano will play.

If you happen to be at the Swan Lake this weekend, let me know what you think!
