Also, hardly very useful. It seems like he's just using some type of multi-touch screen with added hardware built on top. (no laser scanner involved, sorry man ;)) I love the way he's combining a physical interface with a virtual system this way. Many of these touch screen controllers lack this. Reactable did it pretty well. I like to see more done with this concept though.. Move columns around to create swing, add diffrent ball sizes for volume and maybe a larger funnel on top in which you can poor a number of bearings to create random beats.
