Inspired by the cyclical nature of octaves and helical structure of a scale, we prepared a normal (rectangular) model of a piano-style keyboard (in Mathematica), which was then geometrically warped into a left-handed helical configuration, one octave/revolution, so that pitch corresponds to height. The model was imported (via dxf file format) into (Open Inventor/)VRML, where it can be animated by MIDI events, realtime or sequenced, which stream is both synthesized and spatialized by a spatial sound backend, so that the sound of the respective notes is directionalized with respect to sinks, avatars of the human user, by default in the tube of the helix.
