The music cubes combine play and technology thorugh interaction with music instruments. By rolling the large music cubes to another side, the sound effects of the instruments changes and the player can create his own version of the song playing.
Microcontrollers are placed within the cubes and detect the changes in orientation of the cubes, and send the information to a tablet that plays the song. The cubes and the tablet communicate over Bluetooth.
The music cubes will add to the playful and fun atmosphere at Roskilde by driving the festival guests to a state of play. The cubes will enable five to six guests to become DJs while playing and rolling the cubes around.
