The nUFO – Nontrivial Musical UFO – is a new digital music instrument that facilitates a unique form of intuitive gestural play supported by its wireless interface and special software architecture. Unlike conventional musical instruments, it can be moved freely in space: orientation, tilt and movement influence the music in realtime.
