Fibonacci's Personal Groovebox

The Fibonacci number sequence is one of the most respected number sequences in mathematics. It is also closely related to many musical contexts or aesthetics such as tonal systems and the golden ratio.
The Fibonacci series can be used to derive number matrices that create rhythmic and harmonic textures using Fibonacci's Personal Groovebox. The result is a MIDI controller that generates sound using binary coded Fibonacci numbers as parameters.
