i know it is important, to have something haptic in making music but the usual instruments have a huge history in their development. dont forget this ... who is playing for example today a "tiramin" (an instrument from the 20ties last century).
Depends on what range is that "today" meaning, but this instrument (called the Theremin, which is also the name of its inventor), was used extensively in 50's scifi/horror movies, and I know that Jean-Michel Jarre used it live in the 80's. I could presume as well that many different instruments were also created based on the Theremin, either on the input device part or the synthesiser part.
