Interactive arts

The Malinette is a free and open source tool to make interactive and multimedia systems. It is used by artists, students and teachers in labs, schools, colleges or faculties. For the Brutbox project, we use it also for musical workshops with autistics.

Scalable software

The software is a kind of framework and a graphical interface based on the fantastic Pure Data language and the work of its community. It is released under three different flavors, from newbies to experts.

D.I.Y. hardware

We design a wood box shaped like a book to make it portable. It contains an electronic board Arduino and a coherent set of five sensors and five actuators. You can be build the box in a Fablab near you.
