We have been working in a concept for a different type of music instrument. Putting together some feminist theory of music, some love for strange sounding animals, a laser engraver, a bunch of sliders, some orange LEDs and a lot of patience, we created the Peacock.

It is an instrument for live performace or personal exploration of both live and digitized sounds. You can get sound from an SD card or record it through its mic-in. The sound will be looped and affected in different ways by different effects and digital filters.

The engine behind the Peacock is the Smaper v1r2, adding an extra circuit for amplifying the microphone/line in. This is a conceptual instrument, meaning that we are not planning on mass-producing it. However, if you are interested in getting one, just let us know.
