A fantastic new tactile musical interface for iPad has been released in Australia this past week, Skoog 2.0. It is a soft cube that students can hit, squeeze and twist in order to send signals to the iPad to interact with most any music app, such as GarageBand or creative synth apps like Noise by Roli. When the iPad was released it provided an abundance of new ways for students to perform and compose music, particularly given the visual and tactile modes of interacting with the iPad to play instruments and explore sound in ways that traditional instruments do not so readily allow. There is an inherent accessibility in being able to swipe your fingers across octaves on the iPad screen that is such a physically different experience to otherwise playing notes on a piano, and often the sounds generated in performance iOS apps are more immediately harmonious in giving students a view to extend their performance in successful ways that mature the type of sounds they put together. Not that students should shy away from the beautiful challenge of traditional instruments and even atonality and the musical mastery that results, but there is a contrast here that is fascinating within autism pedagogy to consider: the balance between creativity with success designed in to the experience, and creativity with free outcomes and no feedback built in.
