The Musical Chair is a USB enabled seat cushion that you place on your spinning office chair to control your music library. It tracks the motion of your chair, allowing you to spin left and right to skip tracks forward and back, and then, when you leave the chair it pauses your music.
This works by an Arduino reading and interpreting a gyroscope in the cushion. The data is sent to a python program which then puts it in a format that Max can read. Max then handles the music track switching and pausing.
