I've been working on some software and electronics for Robin Mandel in order to realize his Storm. First I made a Arduino-MIDI-output-translator application that converted MIDI out of GarangeBand to on and offs on the Arduino's Digital Outputs. Then I integrated the MIDI playback into the translator application.

ArduinoBt, talking to Max/MSP, using SimpleMessageingSystem.

Had many many troubles with this "programmer not responding" bull shit, but got it going eventually... still doesn't exactly stay up for hours.

Demonstration of a little stand alone application for translating MIDI to an Arduino's digital outputs.

The editable MaxMSP patch (and many more things) are a part of aLib. You will find the patch in the "for controllers" folder, within the "Arduino" section.

This application uses
-SimpleMessageSystem library for the Arduino platform.

I'm teaching a course along with Professor Doug Geers from the School of Music, on the topic of treating time. The course is titled Interdisciplinary Media Collaborations: Treating Time and here is the course description.
