My instrument follows Crawford's model of interaction in the following ways: I listen to the sequence (Listen), think about the sequence (Think), and can then decide to alter the tempo with a potentiometer or change the sequence with a press of a button (Speak). My instrument responds to my input (Listen), executes a code based on that input (Think), and changes the output accordingly (Speak).
My instrument could be improved in many ways. Part of the problem is physical; I simply don't own as many buttons as I would like, so I am only equipped (currently) to make 4 different sequences. I also wish i had another potentiometer, which I would use to change the pitch in addition to the tempo. I also wish i had a better speaker, as this one is quite painful to listen to at any frequency. I also wish my instrument could make sounds other than just one (screeching) tone, but for this a better, more complex speaker is required.
