This is an older video of a interactive synthesizer made by the Music technology group of Universitat Pompeu Fabra in Barcelona.

MIT has one that the computer science department developed and is now sitting in the hallway for anyone to use it. It is very fun to play with, but if you dont know know how to use it, then good luck.
