Hi Knud!<br>thanks for your feedback, that concert has been an inspiring experience indeed. Personally speaking, it was very interesting to see how participants related to each other's sounds.<br>There was who wanted to be the loudest, who kept following the "orchestra", but almost everyone after a while started to think about how to produce interesting sounds and exploit the interactive system in the best way. And that was one of my greatest satisfaction.<br>
<br>Kids were going crazy... :)<br>In the last part of the session there were only 3/4 kids building a huge wall of sound with their screams.<br>Some kids were even running away from their parents to come play with the system, specially when they saw nobody was using it.<br>

Hi Marco -<br>
<br>
I was there :) - it was great fun for the audience, not least for the<br>
kids (as we can hear). I wish that more interactive setups would be<br>
inspiring for the kids, as yours.<br>
Unfortunaltely your recording stop just before I introduce the<br>
ringtone from my mobile as input :)<br>
<br>
best<br>
