biofeedback

[Torbjörn Hörnfeldt]

Nice seeing Michel Waisvisz being mentioned on the list. After looking at
the web-site I am a bit confused though. I remember the Cracklebox as
having pots as well as touch surfaces. (This is from some issue of the STEIM
publication which I subscribed to at the time.) Must have been something
else though. Anyone who has a clue?
