bitKlavier takes inspiration from John Cage's *prepared piano*, but instead of screws and erasers we place a reconfigurable collection of digital machines between the virtual strings of the digital piano. Learn more at the [bitKlavier website](http://bitklavier.com).

bitKlavier is built with [JUCE](http://juce.com>), the C++ audio programming framework ([available under GPLv3 license](https://github.com/WeAreROLI/JUCE)).

Development on bitKlavier is sponsored by the [Center for Digital Humanities @ Princeton University](https://cdh.princeton.edu/).  See the [CDH project page](https://cdh.princeton.edu/projects/bitklavier/) for more details.
