adaptable, minimalist interfaces

three models: two fifty six (16×16), one twenty eight (16×8), and sixty four (8×8).

each is a reconfigurable grid of backlit keypads which connects to a computer. interaction between the keys and lights is determined by the application running on the computer. there is no hard-wired functionality.

this new series evolved from the 40h which began as an interface for our own music performance and art practice. we also make available a kit version which allows users to create custom devices with monome functionality.

the arc was introduced in early 2011, details here.
