  Susie Coulthard tries the touchscreen

Nick Ryan did us proud with a truly gripping demo of Daniel Brown and his Synaesthesia interactive at the (interesting) Death of Taste conference on Friday. I must admit, it made a big difference to hear a composer 'play' it, via the touchscreen. The sight of it, projected giant-size onto one of the walls of Vienna's grand MAK, coupled with the extraordinary sound, transmitted via loudspeakers, was quite an overwhelming experience. You couldn't keep Marios Schwab -pictured on the left- away from the touchscreen!
