Music Cube: It’s been proven that music stimulates the brain and encourages early learning skills. With the push of a button, a baby can compose and arrange musical scores and develop their creative mind. Your local toy store should carry several different types of music cubes, and of course many options can be found online as well.
MusicCube is an expressive tangible interface for controling your Mp3 playlists remotely, it makes contol more exciting and fun when compared to regular interfaces.
The idea arised from the fact if you want to play music, you need to walk to your computer or make use of some dull remote control. The MusicCube is a device that communicates wirelesly with your computer and controls music reproduction software, it doesn't have speakers! You can recognize playlists by the colors of the MusicCube, you can address a different color to each side. The voice in the video serves as support to inform you about which music or playlist you are listening to, it also provides feedback on your actions. However the voice can also be turned off, because feedback is provided through subtle light en sound changes as well.
I developed MusicCube in 2004 as part of my graduation from Industrial Design Engeneerging at TU Delft, we looked into making it at that time. Unfortunately it just remained a working prototype.
