What are mimu gloves?
“The world's most advanced wearable musical instrument, for expressive creation, composition and performance”
The MiMU Gloves are the outcome of years of research and development by our team of musicians, engineers, textile designers and software developers.
The idea for the gloves came from musician Imogen Heap, who in 2010 began to assemble a team to create a pair of musical gloves. This team later founded MiMU: an organization creating expressive tools for music composition and performance.
The first glove prototypes were forged in the nurturing space of Imogen Heap’s musical experimentations, and tested on stage in real live performances.
Now the MiMU Gloves are available to all and there are already many musicians and artists around the world using them to control their voice, synthesizers, add effects to instruments or control lights and live visuals.
