Kyoto-based design studio Collect.Apply is currently developing Block Jam, a collaborative musical user interface concept that is controlled by arrangements of 25 tangible blocks. Various formations of blocks yield different musical phrases and sequences, where multiple users are encouraged to play and collaborate.
By creating both a tangible and a visual language, we are able to create endless meaningful musical structures in a novel and intuitive way that predisposes itself to collaboration and exploration, face to face or via a network, pushing interactive music towards the casual user.
