When I heard the name, it kinda smelled like a special attack from Street Fighter 2, but it was actually a lot more stylish so I was a personally a little disappointed.

Using a Wacom display, as you draw on a blank white screen the installation creates a sound. But the screen isn’t an ordinary flat surface. It’s actually rotating from right to left along a vertical axis creating a 3D canvas. In other words, the sketcher becomes a sculptor digitally creating a 3D sculpture.

You can see a thin horizontal line on the screen. Actually, depending on the place that you write, the scale of the sound changes. In other words, this white canvas is actually murmuring music. Draw a line near the top and a high pitch sound comes out, but draw near the bottom and you get a low pitch. The sound’s length follows the length of the line.
So this 3-dimensional canvas also has a time axis. And, you can also save your sketch (sculpture) on the machine.

The creator, Amit Pitaru, is of course a pro at his creation, and all of the sketches that I thought were beautiful were his. The instrument requires quite a lot of skill, and I bet if there was a "Sonic Wire Sculptor Championships", it would create quite a stir.

Also, the sketch that appears at the end of the video clip is supposed to be a Japanese comic character called the "Kamen Rider". It was drawn by Mrs.Nomura who always coordinates trips for us.
