#norns

norns is an open-source "many sound instruments" made by monome. It is a specially designed Raspberry Pi-based sound computer that can be programmed with Lua, C++, and SuperCollider and designed specifically for high quality real-time sound production.

I have been contributing to the codebase of this device as well as making "scripts" that are like self-contained musical thoughts.
