I'm seeing it now.
Think of a conductor moving the baton.
The speed of the baton and maybe the direction could set the tempo. The
thought sets the sample. Stamp your foot to change to a different sample
etc...
Would look like one of those dancing policemen directing traffic.

Just a suggestion. You need tempo also. I can't see (I'm not saying it can't
be done) how you could think so many happy thoughts that you could play, let
say prestissimo (extremely fast). I think even adagio (about one happy
thought a second) would be problematic.
But without having the actual device available
for investigation, it's
quite impossible to form any opinion on its usefulness.
Not surprising really.
I'm trying to figure out how a drummer would trigger events.
It would be fairly impractical and stupid looking to be jumping around
and waving your arms about just to get a kick drum or a snare to trigger.
Maybe it could be run by emotion. As in you think a happy thought and
the bass kicks in. The happier the thought the louder the bass... Sad
thought and the tinkly chimes are triggered?
