Idea: Scale-Tuned Theremin With Spiritual Exercise Use Ideas =)

the theremin is neat – theoretically we could tune either the horizontal or vertical direction to a tuned musical scale, alike an idea i put up on on an inventions website in 2002, & was actually made by Korg in 2007 called “The Korg Kaossilator,” where you do similar with a touchpad. a theremin might be funner, & i could see, possibly with composer/musician directed note options (at different times in the song), replacing the scales, using for a sort of spiritual exercise – especially where you activate acoustic notes with it – wherein you center your soul with music by moving your hands – say symmetrically – & controlling your harmony with the music around you.

theoretically you could use colors of light in the air to relate which note options you have & choose how the accompanying music unfolds based on your choices; for this purpose, the other musical idea i shared there: a ‘rainbow piano:’ the alignment of the 7 colors of the rainbow to the 7 notes of a major or minor scale, in 12-tone music, could be used – e.g. a blue fourth degree tone — i reverse the order of colors, so that it is violet : ^1, indigo : ^2, etc, by the way — in a 4th measure could activate a transition to a Phyrgian (iii) part, say iii IV V V(?), in the music to be centered with.

you could also play other brief ‘flourish’ notes – e.g. 3rds of the chosen note – by moving about in the note area with a left foot actuator pressed;

you could activate a transition to a new part at the next musical bar, now touching those new notes which transition to the new part during the later measures just before, with a right foot actuator.

some of these you may be able to do in the other axis/axes, say if you use height for pitches, you could use depth for flourishes on that pitch, & perhaps wide length for signaling transitions.

if you do make this i’d love to hear from you; i would love to hear someone get a handle on playing acoustic / electric sounds with this.

. . . reminds me of another idea i had as a teenager in Faribault, Minnesota: Get a trainwhistle-organ installed where Wilderness Park opens up into a valley, & control it with a midi keyboard about a mile & a quarter away, hahah =)

apply for that permit, haha. might take awhile.

hope you like the ideas here =)
