Pablo Somonte Ruano
(Mexico City, 1992). Multimedia worker, filemaker and cryptoexplorer.
I'm interested in topics in the intersection of technology, design and society:
generative systems, moving images, participation, free software, cryptography and p2p networks.
Right now I'm working in deriva.mx a transmedia
project approaching structural violence in Mexico through cinema and interaction.
I also teach a university course at CENTRO,
Networks and Systems: Politics and Economics. Download the study plan and
the class presentations (in spanish).
I also make music, for my personal project Párvulos
and sometimes for commissioned work.
Download my EP: Palabra, recently released in
VAA (Varios Artistas).
Social networks: personal instagram,
instagram for herramienta.digital,

MIDI Xylophone | 2014
Modified instrument that combines the possibilities of MIDI and the characteristics of a physical instrument.
Tools: Electronics, Arduino, Processing, Ableton Live.
The instrument works with an arduino connected to twelve solenoids which
are activated by the corresponding MIDI message. Internally, Ableton Live
sends MIDI through an internal channel (Driver IAC) where Processing receives
and translates the signals into serial I/O that the Arduino uses to activate
the corresponding solenoid.
