Ears are not separated from the body. Not only am I interested into the
convergence of audio and graphics but also touch. This basically is what my
Android app is about. Aside of that I've worked with a painter on an artistic
project which consists in a dialog between painting and music. That affects my
point of view. Also, the feelings I get when I touch and see my guitar have a
great influence on what I play. And I'm certainly not the only one.
