If they're as easy to move as I imagine them to be, make an array (as many as affordable) all next to each other and have each trigger a very short sample, different sound or pitch or somesuch based on direction. Something along the lines of easily controlled granular synthesis by stroking your hand across the array in different directions.<BR>

This part works exactly as advertised as far as I can tell. Very small <BR>
and appears very well made. The D type shaft is itty-bitty. Must be good <BR>
for something, I just don't know what yet.</BLOCKQUOTE><BR>
