A video performance of Carla Scaletti's SlipStick (for Continuum fingerboard and Kyma) is viewable at her website. All sounds for this piece are generated by an algorithm modelling a mass at the end of a spring dragged across a surface with friction, resulting in a range of sounds from creaks to squeaks to pure sine wave oscillations.

A binaural mix-down of Cyclonic, a new 6-channel Kyma-generated composition commissioned in celebration of the 50th Anniversary of the Experimental Music Studios at the University of Illinois, can be heard at the website.
