Strings is the maybe the worlds largest mixer and in addition to that, completely wireless. With an active area of about 15 square meters the crowd is given full control over the constant flowing music. By pulling one of the ten different strings you will control one of ten parameters, in this implementation a corresponding fader on a virtual mixer. A LED is attached to every string which indicates the level of the fader. The ten LED’s are all tracked by an optical device and the positions are then translated to MIDI.
