Running out of avant garde (http://www.engadget.com/2011/09/24/magnetic-cello-almost-makes-it-cool-to-play-the-cello-video/) ways of making music? Then perhaps this BeatWheel hack for Kinect (http://www.engadget.com/tag/kinect), made at a recent Music Hackday in Boston, will give you some fresh ideas. Music samples are separated into eight segments, which encircle the user like a clockface. You then control which part plays by waving your hands around like a severely caffeinated Bernstein. Check out the shadowy BeatWheel demo after the break.
