AccorDeon
Deuxième projet pour FAN: un ordinateur dans un accordéon
- Réalisation après l'OrdiGami
- Matériel: un accordéon et un ordinateur en pièce détaché (~400 euros)
J'ai un accordéon chez moi. En l'observant, il se trouve que le nombre de boutons correspond au nombre de touche d'un clavier. Le système de ventilation est déjà en place et il y a largement la place de mettre le hardware dedans. C'est une idée simple, qui ne paie pas de mine mais qui me rappelle la vieille stratégie d'agent secret qui consiste à cacher une arme dans un étui d'instrument de musique... (CliqUet, 26/04/2004)

The Multimonika was a commercial hybrid electronic/acoustic instrument manufactured by the German company, Hohner GmbH? and designed by the German instrument designer Harald Bode . The Multimonica was a two keyboard combination of a wind-blown reed harmonium instrument, controlled by a 41 note lower keyboard, and an electronic monophonic sawtoooth generator contolled by the upper keyboard. The Multimonica was marketed in Europe from 1940.

The Clavivox was invented by the composer and engineer Raymond Scott circa 1950. Scott (born Harry Warnow September 10, 1908, Brooklyn, NY) was the leader of the Raymond Scott Quintet, working originally for the CBS radio house band in the 1930s. Beginning in the early 1940s, his music made for eccentric but brilliant scores for cartoons for Warner Bros such as 'Loony Tunes' and 'Merrie Melodies'. Scott incorporated elements of Jazz, Swing, pop music and avant-garde modern music into his compositions using a highly personal and unusual form of notation and editing. To the exasperation of his musicians, Scott would record all the band sessions on lacquer discs and later, using a cut and paste technique, edit blocks of music together into complex and almost unplayable compositions.
The Optigan was a novelty instrument built and marketed by the Optigam Corporation (a subsidiary of Mattel) in Compton, USA in the early 1970's. The unusual feature of the Optigan was its method of sound synthesis; the Optigan optically read graphic representations of waveforms from a series of 12" celluloid LP sized discs, hence the name Optigan - 'Optical-Organ'. The Optigan read the discs by passing a light beam through the transparent discs, the beam was interrupted or reduced by the shape of the printed waveform and picked up by a photoelectric cell causing a variable voltage which was in turn amplified and passed to the speakers.
l'ordi va fonctionner ? tu vas modifier toutes les touches du clavier de l'accordeon ? -erational
oui, le projet consiste à le faire fonctionner en attribuant chaque touche de l'accordéon à un clavier AZERTY (l'unité centrale dans le soufflet).
