Excited to share our #CHI2026 paper “FlueBricks: A Construction Kit of Flute-like Instruments for Acoustic Reasoning”! 🎶 What if, instead of only learning to play an instrument, you could reshape the instrument itself as you explore sound? We present FlueBricks—a modular system built around a designer–player loop: build → play → listen → rebuild. As the boundary between designer and player blurs, a pattern begins to emerge—what we call acoustic reasoning—where people form, test, and refine ideas through sound. 🌐 Project Page: boyuchen.dev/projects/fluebr… 🧵 [1/7] #CHI2026 #HCI #InstrumentDesign #AcousticReasoning #MusicTech #TangibleUI #FlueBricks

New low freq freak!! The lowest one yet!!! Not as loud as I would have liked, but the low freqs are pretty impressive for the size!!! #digitalfabrication #bronzecast #resonantbody #modalfrequencyanalysis #instrumentdesign #musicalinstrument #bell

Hey dear NI Reaktor enthusiasts, I just shared 37 blocks I designed/modded during the Covid-19. It's time for them to see the world. Have fun! native-instruments.com/fr/re… #reaktor #modularsynth #instrumentdesign #nativeinstrument

The ‘plantyflutesizer’ by @_bichopalo_ is a combination of different instruments, with the main one being a kind of sequencer with eight notes that can be combined to form different patterns. as the designer explains, an electric pulse activates a motor connected to an arm that hits a sensor that executes a previously recorded note. In addition to the musical instruments, the structure is complemented by a rotating plant pot and the designer’s two parrots, pico and verdi 🦜 🎥 @designboom @FrRonconi @labordeolivier @Nicochan33 @PawlowskiMario @Shi4Tech @jblefevre60 @EvanKirstel @sallyeaves @mvollmer1 @LaurentAlaus @HeinzVHoenen @enilev @MargaretSiegien @KanezaDiane @gvalan @fogle_shane @helene_wpli @Ym78200 @kalydeoo @TanyaSinha_ @RagusoSergio @BetaMoroney @RLDI_Lamy @Analytics_699 @LavaletteAstrid @Khulood_Almani @sonu_monika @bimedotcom @jeancayeux @AndrewinContact @mary_gambara @SiddharthKS @Hana_ElSayyed @Fabriziobustama @smaksked @kashthefuturist #Plantyflutesizer #Bichopalo #MusicalInnovation #InstrumentDesign #Sequencer #Innovation #Art #ElectronicMusic #MusicTechnology #Technology #Music #InteractiveDesign #MusicalArt #SoundDesign #CreativeEngineering #UniqueInstruments

For the Chowndolo we will try to make a PCB with slots so that it can be attached to the main structure in a very easy way (as usual using #FreeCAD #KiCAD) @_Giaggia #design #chowndolo #PCB #instrumentdesign #interactiondesign #tui #lasercutting #PCB #pcbdesign #music #sound
