The musical instruments there are not suitable\u2026.But we have a very cool plan!<\/div>\n<div>We want to create a new musical instrument.This is a partnership project in the Netherlands, between My Breath My Music and the EMB foundation. (EMB= Severe Multiple Disabilities)<br \/>\nMaking music yourself is a big enjoyment for many but Yrsa cannot play a conventional instrument! That is because there are no real musical instruments created yet for children like Yrsa. \u201cWhat about special instruments like the Magic Flute then?\u201d you ask. Unfortunately, Yrsa cannot play that either. She has too little control.<br \/>\nThat is not fair, so we accepted the challenge to build an instrument for Yrsa!<br \/>\nWe will do this in collaboration with a number of very smart mechanical engineering students from Utah State University (USU) and Dixon Nielson their Research Development Director. They are going to make a special, playable xylophone for Yrsa.<\/p>\n<div>We have worked with USU for some time. They convert our ideas into instruments that are usable for EMB students. The USU students go to work for a year and develop a control box with smart software that ensures all children who can operate a switch can use it to play a specific instrument. (For insiders: step scanning, auto scanning, random play, note for note, etc.). After this year Yrsa will receive her instrument.<br \/>\nThe costs for this project is 1800 euros. These includes all material costs. The student labour is free of charge.<br \/>\nThis project will be open source and published on the website\u00a0<a class=\"link\" href=\"http:\/\/www.mybreathmymusic.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">www.mybreathmymusic.com<\/a>. This way people around the world can build these instruments themselves.<\/div>\n<div>Going forward our foundation hopes to produce more instruments so that other EMB children can enjoy the great feeling that comes from making music.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h3>The first serious test 6th January 2019 .<\/h3>\n<div>\n<p>On Stage!\u00a0 Thank you\u00a0 Yrsa and Yasho!<\/p>\n<div>\n<div><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-748 \" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Ton-Dontje-www.fotomemories.nl-MybreathMymusic-3732-300x162.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"370\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mybreathmymusic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Ton-Dontje-www.fotomemories.nl-MybreathMymusic-3732-300x162.jpg 300w, https:\/\/mybreathmymusic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Ton-Dontje-www.fotomemories.nl-MybreathMymusic-3732-768x414.jpg 768w, https:\/\/mybreathmymusic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Ton-Dontje-www.fotomemories.nl-MybreathMymusic-3732-1024x552.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/mybreathmymusic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Ton-Dontje-www.fotomemories.nl-MybreathMymusic-3732.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 370px) 100vw, 370px\" \/><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-747 size-medium alignleft\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Ton-Dontje-www.fotomemories.nl-MybreathMymusic-3728-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mybreathmymusic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Ton-Dontje-www.fotomemories.nl-MybreathMymusic-3728-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/mybreathmymusic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Ton-Dontje-www.fotomemories.nl-MybreathMymusic-3728-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/mybreathmymusic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Ton-Dontje-www.fotomemories.nl-MybreathMymusic-3728-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/mybreathmymusic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Ton-Dontje-www.fotomemories.nl-MybreathMymusic-3728.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>The Utah State University\u00a0 Team.<br \/>\nThank you.
