==> ARDUTOUCH KITS ARE AVAILABLE at CornfieldElectronics.com <== ArduTouch is an Arduino-compatible music synthesizer kit with a built-in touch keyboard, and with built-in speaker/amplifier. Build it, and it works! Way low cost (currently $30.) It comes pre-programmed with a music synthesizer (called "Thick") that makes really nice sounds and music and noise. Other diverse synthesizers available at CornfieldElectronics.com . An ArduTouch Arduino library is available for programming in more super nice synthesizer features. The ArduTouch Arduino library comes with many way cool example synthesizer sketches that also serve as a tutorial for making your own ArduTouch synthesizers (which are Arduino sketches). For those who want to learn more, the documentation teaches the basics of Digital Signal Processing for audio generation (with more documentation to come)).

Anyone can learn to solder! This kit was designed for people who have never made anything before. Simple step-by-step instructions show you how. Once you finish, you get a cool colored blinky light badge you can wear. Plus, it doubles as a flashlight! This kit takes about 30 minutes to complete.

Using a Raspberry Pi 4 running OpenCV with a webcam for facial-recognition, the software (in Python) claims to calculate your innermost desirees, and then chooses the perfect lounge music song (played on three of my ArduTouch synthesizers, plus the open source eSpeak text-to-speech engine for lyrics) to fulfill those innermost desires. I developed this project as Artist-in-Residence with Monochrome/Q21 at MuseumsQuartier in Vienna in August/September-2021, and presented at Roboexotica as part of Ars Electronica in September-2021.
