Clatters Pocket Garden Listener for generative biometric signals
The Pocket Garden Listener detects conductivity variations on the skin of living beings and transforms them into musical expressions.
Pocket Garden Listener
It’s a portable version of Clatters Gardener Listener Eurorack module that lets you take its sensors out of the rack and into the wilds. Housed in a cute little box it has connections for probes, MIDI, Trigger/Gate, CV and USB with a knob to change various sensitivities.
The idea is that you attach the probe pads to yourself, or a plant, or some other victim, and plug it into the box. It then detects the difference in conductivity across the skin. That data is interpreted and translated into MIDI which can be sent over a TRS MIDI cable or USB to your DAW. The MIDI can be quantised to a number of included scales and plugged into a synth. The MIDI also gets converted to CV and is fed out of a 1v/oct output while the trigger/gate output fires every time there’s a new note.

It’s great for generative tunes and evolving ideas that will be driven by the biometrics of living things. That sounds very cool.
The Pocket Garden Listener is available now for €237.
