Dimi-H
The last in a long range of pioneering synthesizers designed by Mr Erkki Kurenniemi, Dimi-H is an instrument which is played in 3D space and allows a musician to pick notes and chords "out of thin air". This optical instrument was part of an exhibition at Institut Finlandais, Paris between March and April in 2006.
