I've been listening to Rafael Toral, some of whose music is really tremendous. I have not quite absorbed his new recording, "Space", yet, but a few interrupted listenings have kept me intrigued. The interview with him in a recent Wire was quite thought-provoking. Anyway, I mention him because of what he is doing with controllers. Anyone that is interested in alternative controllers and hasn't seen what he is now using should take a look.

Everyone note accessible, and just add a button on the floor to shift octaves. Here it is, the MIDI Glove: http://www.vrealities.com/midiglove.html This is great. But man, look at the price!!!
