Introducing innovative inflatable music making system, Musii, that is being released this month.

Musii stands for Multi-sensory interactive inflatable. It is a tactile futuristic form that is illuminated with colour and emits a world of sounds when touched. Musii has been designed for play and sensory therapy in the Special Educational Needs (SEN) market but can be enjoyed by everybody. The designers from Musii will show us how they have created a pliable inflatable interface that offers tactile feedback as you interact with the internal sensors. Musii has a bank of preset sound-scapes but the more technically minded can plug in a monitor and mouse and program their own. At this talk you will have the chance to try out this new product and get acquainted with the the Bristol-based design team better known for their previous works as artists Jnr.Hacksaw, Designs in Air and Filthy Luker.

This Lunchtime Talk is part of Open Studio Friday, which takes place at the Studio every week.

Do you want to find out what is going on at the Pervasive Media Studio? Are you interested in meeting our residents, talking about a specific project or curious about pervasive media? Why not pack a sandwich and join us for one of our Lunchtime Talks and Open Studio Friday.

Lunchtime Talks are informal presentations by Studio residents and associates. They normally take place at 1pm on Friday, are free and open to everybody who’s interested in what we do.

After the Talk, we also invite you to stay with us for the afternoon to continue the conversation or work on your own projects. We provide chairs, tables, wireless and a great space. You bring what you need to work with (laptop/mobile). Our open afternoons close at 5pm.

Let us know if you’d like a tour of the space and we'll be happy to show you around. Send an email to admin@pmstudio.co.uk
