alfie's current project is the Squeezy Mic Stand Button Controller Thing™ (it's a working title): a set of controllers that can be mounted to a mic stand and provide arbitrary control inputs to music soft/hardware.

It currently manifests as a set of 3D-printed blocks ziptied to various pieces of scrap pipe (K&M's standard pipe dimensions are usually ⌀15mm or ⌀22mm) with some kind of wire poking out, and some kind of input device.
