We’re looking for an exceptional creative technologist / musical interface engineer to help bring GripBeats® to life.

GripBeats® raised over US$200,000 on Kickstarter and is built around 32 touch-sensitive pressure sensors and a 9-axis motion sensor.


This is not a conventional controller.

The vision is to turn touch, pressure, posture, and movement into a real-time musical language — something expressive, playable, and alive.

We’re looking for someone who works at the intersection of:

• music + engineering
  gesture + sound
  hardware + expressive software
  prototyping + artistic sensitivity
  C++ / JUCE experience is a strong plus.
  
  You may be a great fit if you’ve worked with Max/MSP, Ableton Live, SuperCollider, Pure Data, MIDI/OSC, sensor mapping, gesture recognition, embedded inputs, or experimental musical interfaces.
  
  
  
  If this sounds like you — or someone you know — please reach out via www.gripbeats.com (http://www.gripbeats.com) with:
  
  • a short intro
    portfolio / work samples
    links to relevant gestural or interactive audio work
    your location / time zone
    availability
  
  GripBeats® is about building a new kind of expressive instrument. We’re looking for the right mind to help make it real.
