Abstract
This paper describes early experiments, which attempt to reconfigure the sound of a breath using a network of artificial spiking cortical neurons. The connectivity of the network evolves according to a spike timing dependent plasticity algorithm and the instrument triggers grains of sound from recordings of the breath when any of the neurons fire.
