This project takes sound as input, whether ambient environmental or via hard-line, and runs them through algorithms in real-time to make unique acoustic paintings. Many variables can be adjusted on a MIDI controller or even via OSC on an iPhone (sensitivity, size, opacity, color range, speed, etc.), producing radically different effects. Sonic Stalagmites incorporates an open source programming language and environment for people who want to program images, animation, and interactions.
