Micah Frank is using Max and Kyma in his Tectonic installation. Whenever an earthquake is detected anywhere in the world, Max sends the data to Kyma where it controls granular synthesis, waveshaping, subtractive synthesis, or physical modeling. The longitude and latitude of the quake is encoded as position in a speaker array.
