Built on musical symmetry. Designed for touch. Made to play.

01

What is Axis Gemina?

Axis Gemina is a geometric MIDI instrument for iPad. Instead of arranging notes like a piano keyboard or a grid of pads, it projects musical relationships into playable spaces.

Touch a scale, trace a chord, rotate a pattern, or explore harmony through shapes.

02

Playable geometries

The same musical engine can be projected through different geometries. Each layout reveals a different way to see and play the chromatic system.

Enigma 24

Twenty-four nodes in paired rings — harmony as a field you can walk through.

Enigma Spiral

A continuous chromatic spiral where pitch class becomes angle and register becomes motion.

Flower of Life

Tangent circles and rosettes — overlapping fields that reveal interval layers.

Concentric Hex

Nested hexagonal rings — the classic axial layout, refined for touch.

03

Why it feels different

Axis Gemina turns musical structure into touchable form. Notes are not just buttons: they belong to fields, symmetries and paths.

The two colors are not decoration: they reveal the twin whole-tone families hidden inside the chromatic scale. Moving between colors means crossing a semitone.

  • Overlapping circular fields — relationships you can see before you play them.
  • Cyan and magenta twin structures — two interlocked whole-tone families on the stage.
  • Scales as visible shapes — lock a mode and the geometry lights up under your fingers.
  • Chords as spatial forms — trace a voicing and hear it as a figure on the grid.
  • Gestures as motion — rotate rings, sweep spirals, turn patterns into performance.

MIDI workflow

Use Axis Gemina as a performance surface or MIDI controller for your favorite synths, DAWs and sound modules.

MIDI out
Available for connecting Axis Gemina to synths, DAWs and sound modules — notes, velocity and per-voice expression.
MIDI in
Incoming MIDI can light the on-screen geometry — hear a keyboard, see the shapes.
Performance
Multitouch velocity, pitch-bend ribbons, arpeggiator and ring looper in the current beta.
Export
Session MIDI export for sketches and arrangements.
Experimental
Generative and sequencing tools are currently experimental — beta testers see them first.

From research to instrument

Axis Gemina grew from years of exploring a question that traditional instruments rarely make visible: what if harmony could be understood through symmetry?

The piano contains hidden geometric relationships, but the tonic is not always the true center of symmetry of a scale, and tritones can act as hinges between opposite tonal poles.

Axis Gemina turns those relationships into a playable iPad instrument — the first public expression of a broader research project into musical geometry, interval maps and three-dimensional harmonic spaces.

AI-assisted creative coding tools helped move years of sketches and theory into something you can touch, test, refine and play.

Behind the geometry

A glimpse under the surface

The instrument is built to be played first — the deeper relationships reveal themselves as you touch it.
